Nov 12, 2018 - Several months ago, I created a file using a Master interfacing for a lot of. I've since upgraded to the most recent version of Word for Mac and I. When working with documents in outline view in Word 2011 it occasionally opens a 'Master Document' toolbar in-between the Mac menu and the document. When it does it resizes the document. With our site. Created on July 31, 2012.
However, I need to be able to move these files (all together in one project folder), share them, and open them on other systems. Unfortunately, the subdocument links are all absolute links and locked from editing. I can find no way to convert them into relative links or to update them automatically. If the Master is moved, all the Subdocuments must be manually removed and then reinserted from their new locations.
This is not practical. The current behavior is very dangerous, because it's easy to keep using a link to an outdated version of a subdocument (back in the original location) without realizing you're doing so!
