master documents have been unstable in past. although there may improvement, wouldn't use them. see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/recovermasterdocs.htm.

as alternative, consider includetext fields. see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/includetextfields.htm. (to display insert file dialog box in word 2007 or 2010, click insert tab | object | text file.)
