[emacs-wiki-discuss] OT - emacs help requested please

[Sharon Kimble]

I'm hoping that someone can give me some guidance please, or point me in the 
right direction with some possible search terms?

The situation is that I am editing a book/booklet in emacs using the master 
document feature. Each chapter is in a separate file to make it easier to 
work on them and to add stuff to them. When they're all loaded into emacs 
ready for a work session I call them to the forefront of the buffers ........ 
and then the requested file opens in a completely separate window from the 
main emacs instance. And this is what I =don't= want!

Can somebody please tell me what to look for in my .emacs or how to turn off 
this 'feature' as its disconcerting to being working in two buffers whilst I 
add a citation to the bibliography in a plethora of other windows of chapters 
also open.

Hopefully, thanks
Sharon.
