Microsoft word is a popular software for formatting documents. While working with such documents, it may become essential to merge multiple documents together into a single word document. Most of the time when writing books, each chapter is written in different word documents that will need to be combined into a single word document in the end. This will help to create the tables of content and indexes for the book.

To merge word documents, first, you will need to launch Word and select a blank document where the merging needs to take place. It would be a good idea to save the document as well.
