Thank you Caolán, that worked.

However, when I tried to load and concatenate multiple documents into that "Master \
Document" using loadComponentFromURL() it didn't quite work. Using "_default" as the \
target frame name created several new documents, "_self" and "_top" had no effect, \
and "_parent" seemed to load a document into that Master Document but then was \
replaced—not appended—by the next load.

What I'm trying to achieve is:

   • open a Master Document; then
   • load multiple documents into it, one following the next, essentially \
_concatenating_ multiple documents; then  • iterate over the Master Document's \
content as if it were a single document.

Cheers,
Jens
