[SOLVED] Apache Open Office 4.1.6 Windows 10
I have created A Master Document but I can not get the Master Document to appear. F5 only presents the usual document Navigator.
Any Suggestions?

Hi and welcome to the forum!

In the Navigator, you see the sub-documents, not the master one.
See the screenshots in the wiki: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Docume ... r_document

Problem still exists. When I create the Master Document I never get a Navigator window that allows me to insert the sub documents.

Your screenshot is hardly readable.
Have you saved the master document with the menu File>Send>Create master document?
Once done, the Navigator takes a different look.

document created with File>Send>create master document. Attaching new screenshots. First is Master document view and second is the first page of the sub document as opened for edit. NO MASTER DOCUMENT NAVIGATOR pane. F5 only toggles the usual Styles and Formatting pane.
This is screenshot of first subdocument as seen in the master document file.

This is first page of the subdocument as seen in editing mode.

You need to click the button top left of the Navigator toolbar:
