Hi Sunil,
There are 5 ways you can use to link one document to another.

1: Use the "Paste link" option under "Paste Special" command. You copy the entire contents of source file and paste them to a new file. Later you can update the link once a change is made.

2: Insert the source file as an object into a new file. Remember to check "Link to file" option.

3: Another usual way is to create a master document linking to several subdocuments. You can do it under the "Outline" view in Word.

4: Insert a bookmark into the source file whose range includes the entire document contents. Then go to new file and insert a hyperlink there, linking to the bookmark you just created.

5: Insert a "IncludeText" field. While creating, enter the filename or URL address of the source file.

And I'm afraid you have to use these ways at the stage of file creating so as to link files.

For more detailed information, you can refer to this article:

Hope that helps!
