Default Macro to Append Word Documents

Two related items:

1) I have 125 individual Word documents that need to be consolidated into
one document. Each document contains a two-column table with wrapped text,
which I think is one of my problems.

2) Is there a way to have the files appended in filename order so that the
pages appear in sequence? Filenames start with 1, 2, 3, etc..

P.S. Steve Langs solution almost worked €¦ but not quite. There were some
duplicate pages ... and most were out of sequence.

The boiler.dot add-in downloadable from my web site is aimed at this sort of
task. It will insert the files from the indicated folder in the order you
select them.

That certainly takes care of my biggest problem ... now just to figure out
why my macro is a bit jittery - it works *most* of the time and needs
cleanup. At least it's always in the same place if it does error. BUT yours
worked great! Thanks again, Graham. Cheryl B.
