To preserve the section formatting (columns, page setup, and headers &
footers) when using Insert | File, see the relevant part of the article at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm.

If, in addition, you want to preserve text formatting, make sure that unique
styles have been used in the source documents.

I am using Word 2003 and have 4 documents I am trying to merge into one
without losing the original formatting of each - margins/number of pages
etc.
How do I do this? I have inserted a section break each time and have then
used the Insert-File option to paste in the next document. I was
expecting
to see the pop-up box offering me the "keep source formatting" option but
this doesn't appear. Can you help?
