    one way would be to write a macro

    to open the next document in the list
    Ctrl A
    go to the end of the main document
    Ctrl V

    and repeat.

    Or use mail merge in Word edited from file made by "dir *.doc /b > mydoclist.txt"

    Real DTP sw can easily open that many word docs into one file and automatically format it.
