Hi Dave, To do this efficiently, you really need a program like "RoboHelp", which is what I use to compile DBT's Help files. This allows me to decompile a .chm and retain the Table of Contents and general layout. I can then use RoboHelp's Printed Documentation feature to produce a Word file, or groups of files, depending on what I want. I'm sure there may be merge programs which will do what you want, but I suspect they will be rather cumbersome to use.
