1. I have a very long System Design document that I separated into 7
separate documents due to WORD constantly crashing when this was one
'whole' document. Boss was happy with that decision when made. NOW, I
am informed that it needs to become whole via the Master document
approach, that I have no experience with. Can someone direct me to some
resource (other than the WORD help :( on how this works? I need to
master this, it seems.
2. I have been sent an updated, section of the SDD (from a developer)
that I need to MERGE into my working version of this. *I have always
been LEARY of this feature.* Can someone please instill a reason for me
to trust this/or confirm my suspicions that this is not a feature worth
trusting.
What I understood I should do is OPEN the updated section (from the
Developer) and merge MY former version into it. What I understand is
that the *tracking changes that result will be where MY working version
differs from what the developer has provided*.
If I am mistaken, and this is not the most intelligent approach, well,
I'd be grateful for someone to set me straight.
