Combining outline files without cutting and pasting

[Norman]

I have five files all created from the same template all
structured in outline format (Section 1, 1.1, 1.1.1) based
on heading styles. Each of these five files relates to a
region (America, UK, Germany, Asia/Pacific, Rest of
Europe) and they all have the same sections. I need to
combine them so that there is one document and, for
example, Section 1.1.1 has subsections titled Americas,
UK, Germany, Asia/Pacific, Rest of Europe). I can cut and
paste manually but it will be a lot of work. Is there any
feature in Word that would combine documents based on the
common template structure or do I need to get a fancy
macro written?

Create a new document and use Insert | File to insert each of your documents
in the desired order.
