General Office Program to compose all office documents

[RenoRail]

Microsoft office should include an Office Overview Program, where you can
assemble a document composed of many different individual Office Applications
into one workbook-like file. For instance, using visio as a template, in one
of visio’s tabs you could have a Microsoft word document, in another tab an
excel spreadsheet and in another tab an actual visio drawing. You could
modify each tab, using that program. Does anyone know of anything like this?
I know you can insert object-types into each of the different documents, but
you are generally editing that object in one of the other office product's
environments.

That program was known as Office Binder, it went away a few versions
ago. You may use Windows ZipFolders in a similar fashion.

Unfortunately using WinZip isn't quite the same. The advantage of using
Binder was you could add page numbering and header/footers across the
document. The disadvantage was it sounded good on paper but didn't work so
well which is why it was discontinued.

True, not same, only similar. Just keeps them grouped in a package.
