Print a word document that has only hyperlinks to other documents

[ferencziattila]

I got a 000book.doc (yes, this is not docx, it was made in 2003!) it contains only links to other doc files that are in the same directory. The only thing I can see in it, eg:

C:\tmp\001.doc
C:\tmp\002.doc
C:\tmp\0021.doc
...

 These documents are there if I click on the links, I can see them. I want to print everything at once. How I could make "visible" the linked documents in one document and print them?

First, storing documents you want to keep in a folder C:\tmp is a terrible idea.

Which version of Word are you using now?

Which operating system?

@Charles_Kenyon Thank you for your answer.

This is just an example, it is not there.

MS Windows 11 Home & MS Office 365 , latest version.

I took, but I am pretty sure my father didn't use something similar. He couldn't speak English, so he used a "built in function from a book". This function was removed? Maybe I should install an old Word somehow?

There is no internal function that will simply bring that content in.

However, if your father was using the Insert Text from Document, it would. That gives you the IncludeText field. It would be possible to write a macro that would convert the hyperlinks to IncludeText fields, but I think that using Graham's free utility would be simpler.
