The issue with combining the documents is to get them in the correct order.
If you have a list of the documents in another document, one to a paragraph,
a macro can be used to iterate through that list, opening each document in
turn, and then inserting its content into another documnet after the
previous document that was inserted there.

Such a list would most likely be compiled with a simple dir-statement
with the appropriate sorting switch, which sends the file directory into
a text file. Now, with 1200 documents, I assume there is a naming
convention in place where you really *can* sort the files inorder
automatically ...
