Dear All,
I have a group of docs that i usually work on together. Is there I way
I can link htem so when I open one they all open together? Without
master sub doc etc.
Thanks
Susan
 
The quickest/easiest method I can think of is to put shortcuts to all of them into a folder. When you want to open all the docs at once, double-click the folder, hit Ctrl+A, then Enter

If you need this to happen seamlessly, you can record a macro. Make sure you store the macro in the FIRST document that you always open. Then, move the macro code to the ThisDocument area of the VB editor, and change its name to "Document_Open()

Here's some information that will help you create the macro

Or, you can just record the macro, store it in normal.dot and put a button on your Word toolbar for it. In that case, you'll have to start recording BEFORE you open any of those docs.
 
Quick way is to use Windows Explorer: put them all in the same folder,
select them all, then double-click any of them.
