Hi :) Arrgh, that approach sounds like it might be worth creating a new "master document" and then 1. import the existing master document into that (in the way Cley described) 2. go into styles and modify the important ones to rename them
3. use Cley's advice to import the styles from the first sub-document 4. again rename the important changed styles 5 repeat 3&4 for each sub-document This almost certainly wont be perfect first time so don't aim to do to much or be too perfect, just treat it as a test-run to find out which styles need to be renamed.
