Hi, any help most appreciated.

I have several (31 to be precise) one-page MS Word docs that I'd like to merge into one document (.docx or pdf) containing 31 pages. This is just to save me copying and pasting 30 times and to stop my colleagues having to download and print 31 individual documents.

My google-fu has failed me. I've tried 'insert text from file' and a merge cmd prompt to no avail.

Are there any other options?

Thanks in advance.

You could have done it manually by the time you tried insert from file, command prompt and posted this :p

If you have Acrobat Pro, you could convert them all to PDF, then merge those PDFs really easily.

Insert > Object > Text from file does also work, although I've only ever tried with plain text. Not sure how it handles formatting/images etc.

Craig is correct. Had to do this 6 months back to hand in a file for a university course. It involved merging 3 or 4 sub documents with contents page etc and I worked out the text from file after a few moments of head scratching looking in the ribbon.
