I have 60 word documents in a directory that I would like to append
into a single file. Is there an easy way to do this?

Has anyone written a macro that can append every word document in a
directory into a single word document?

I very much thank you for your help.

Assuming that all of the files you wish to combine are just text you could
use the Insert -> Object -> Text From File to insert multiple files. Use the
shift key to select a range of files or the control key to select individual
ones. If it is more than just text then you can use use the Insert -> Object
option to insert the whole file but you cannot select multiple files when you
use this method.
