Assuming it's documents you want to combine, see: Combine Multiple Word Documents
Hey Paul... Your article states for Windows PCs only. Has it been updated to work on Macs?
To add the text from another file use the Ribbon's Insert tab and choose to insert the text from a file.
Hi Bob,
No, it hasn't been updated for Macs. I missed that that's the OP's platform. My bad.
That said, the bulk of the code would be the same - only the code for looping through the files in the folder and, perhaps the save code would need revision for that. Are you able to help there?
