Hello,

    As I'm planning to write a big document myself I wonder what the best way 
of dooing this. Reading the documentation I assumed that I could use one big 
file divided in different parts and then using parts to work only on the part 
that is relevant.  The above answer however suggest that I better have 
different chapter files, so maybe I'm wrong. I was wondering if there is 
somewhere a document available explaining how to handle big documents (in 
such 
a way that you can still reference every label in the document).

Thanks a lot in advance
