Can you merge 2 Word documents together (not mail merge)
Kurby 12/30/2008 1:27:00 AM
I have 2 word documents both have a lot of photos and drawn lines and both
would be a pain to copy and paste into another one so i'm wondering if i can
merge one in the other or insert one into the other like you can with
pictures or clip art.

Thanks

For Word 2003 or earlier: With the cursor at the end of one document, click
Insert > File and choose the second document from the dialog.

For Word 2007: With the cursor at the end of one document, click the Insert tab
of the ribbon, click the down arrow on the Object button, choose Text From File,
and choose the second document from the dialog.
