In CS2, you could Copy and Paste Master Pages from one document to another or even drag-and-drop them from the Pages palette to an inactive document in the background. But in CS3, there’s an easier way to access Master Pages in one document for use in another. Simply look under the Options menu of the Pages panel for Load Master Pages, locate the document that contains the Master Pages in the dialog window, select it and press the Open button. It will even Load Masters from CS2 documents.
