Is there a way to merge several different documents into one?

[Kat]

Is there a way to merge several different documents into one? I have several
different word documents that I need to merge to create one large document.
Does anyone know of an easier way then copying and pasting the other
documents into the main doc? Thank you for any assistance that you can
provide.

(Word2003) Insert > File

(Word2007) Insert > Object (near the right end of the ribbon) > Text
from file (don't click "OBject," click the tiny arrow next to
"Object")

Probably you should insert a Section Break (New Page) before you
insert each document.

Kat,

See the Boiler.zip download from MVP Graham Mayor's website:

This is a macro based approach. Some people scorn macros because they
don't understand them. In this case you might find it advantageous to
repetetive point and clicks with the mouse.

I will definitely try this. I have 30 documents that I need to merge into
one and this will save me some time.
