Importing a series of files into Word

[Maverick]

I'm need to import/insert a series of text (or Word) files into a
single Word file (in Word 2000/Windows 2000). How can I import/insert
the files by using a single command? I don't want to insert them one
file at a time (there are 37 files). Thanks for your help.

If you're happy working with VBA you can easily write a macro to do it. Do
it once with the macro recorder running, then embed that code within a loop.
But it's probably quicker just to do it manually. 37 files times say 20
seconds each: about 15 minutes work.

With the main file open, you can drag the icon for the additional file into
place. Still may need to be one by one (ISTR dragging as a group of icons
will not guarantee proper location) but less trouble than Insert | File,
perhaps.
