You could do Master Documents, but I, and nearly everyone else,
recommend against it. Word isn't designed or reliably capable of
doing multi-file documents.
Your best work around is to ensure the pagination and page numbering
is consitent and follows from one file to the next. Then generate a
table of figures for each file, separately, and manually merge them
together.
