I would love to find two utilities. Does anyone know of a utility that
will allow me to
1) Merge over one hundred separate MS Word (Word97) files into one big
file? The author of this document created a separate file for each page of
the manual. Or, does anyone know why I should not combine all the separate
files into one file? Seems to me it would be far easier to work on if it
were one file (searches, replaces, etc.).
2) Check the spelling in a PDF file? I do not have the source file.
Thank you for your help.
