Obviously, though, if you're going to use cross-references in the form of 'see notes 7-9', any links can realistically only point to the first and last of those.
That does sound nice, however, I had issues with combining the individual chapter files because there is an endnote list at the end of each chapter (which starts numbering at 1). It seems impossible to do an "odd-page section break" (to start a new chapter) after the last reference in the endnote list. After flattening, I had no issues combining.

When a cross reference is in the form of 7-9, it is no problem it only points to 7 and 9 and not to 8. I can't find how I can automatically change the format from 7,8,9 to 7-9. Do you know how to change that? Update: I found the shortcut key ctrl+shift+H, which works In case I would reverse it (change 7-9 back to 7,8,9), how can I do that?

In chapter 1 and 2, I changed in the note options "end of document" to "end of section" and also choose to restart at each section. Next, I opened chapter 1 and clicked the insert tab on the ribbon, chose the drop down triangle next to "object" and chose "Text from File". I selected chapter 2, which is then added after chapter 1. There are two problems, however. First, the headings from chapter 2 (e.g. 2.1, 2.2 etc) are not visible in the heading pane. Second, if I place my cursor at the end of the last reference of chapter 1 and press enter, I cannot insert a odd-page section break. How can I fix these two issues?
