Can I merge 1 document into a group without going one-at-a-time?

[Dr_Dante]

I have a number of old forms, each with distinct filenames, that need
updating to a newer version. Using the Compare and Merge function works
perfectly, keeping all old data tags while adding the new ones, except that
i'm having to do each form one at a time.

Is there any way I can do it in bulk but still keep the individual file names?

Oh, if it helps, i'm using Office 2003. By extension that means this problem
is in Word 2003.
