Collection of files

[Ricki Miles]

I am working in Word 2000 and want to be able to organize a monthly Board
Report into one large electronic file and send it to a laser color printer.
This report is basically a collection of reports from many different
people - charts, tables, Excel files, Word files, some files that were once
converted from Word Perfect, all of which lose some of their formatting when
brought into a new Word doc.

What can I do with these documents so that there is less re-formatting
involved in putting this report together? The Excel financial statements
are the worst to bring in. Is the Binder feature an option? I have created
Word styles for consistency.

TIA,

Ricki

If you have Binder available and can figure out how to use it, you may find
this far the most satisfactory option. Unfortunately, Binder is no longer
part of Office and therefore no longer supported, and there aren't a lot of
users (which is why it was dropped), so you may not be able to get the
answers to any questions you have about it (especially since users of more
recent versions of Word can't even experiment with it to answer your
questions).

Thanks very much for your response. I will try to use the Binder option.
