David,
you are quite right. I should have checked on the *present*
situation. My info was based on the experience I had just after you
introduced the Chapter copy facility which is already quite some time
ago. I tried to reproduce this (as proof) using older versions of
OvPro but have not succeeded. It can also have been a problem with the
computer at that time.
So to make a single document: copy all the chapters in one document
(Menu > Page > Copy chapter and then Menu > Page > Paste chapter,
then select Before or After current chapter.
Save the whole document while the caret is at the beginning of the
Index (= last chapter); then when loading the document opens with a
view on the Index.

Instead of "window" read "frame".
