I know, nobody uses MS Word anymore, but it's here at the office I work at.

A couple of questions. First, I just spent two whole days taking 200 individual files and placing them in one document. It was a occupational health and safety thing. Someone had written all the information on individual documents. So it was my job to take all those documents and place them into one big document. So I had to open, select all, cut, open, paste every document. My question after all that is did I just waste a lot of time? Is there an easier way to do what I just did?

Second. Concerning the above 200 files. I want to print the list of all 200 files so I can use it as a checklist as I go through the new big document to ensure I have all the documents included, and in the right place. But I can't seem to find a way to just print the filenames of all the files. WHen I highlight the list, it opens all the files up, and I don't want that. Now, PRINTSCREEN seems like an obvious choice here, but it doesn't work, at least on my comp. So any other solutions???
