Hello NG,
Is there a way to save a documents pages to all different files, somehow
naming or numbering them? I get textfiles containing manual page-breaks that
I would like to split up like that.

Pages = Source.BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropertyPages)

Counter = 0

While Counter < Pages

Counter = Counter + 1

DocName = "Page" & Format(Counter)

Source.Bookmarks("\Page").Range.Cut

Target.Range.Paste

Target.SaveAs FileName:=DocName
