Hi Ian,
Does this actually need to be a programmatic solution?
Why not simply read each .htm file into Word 2003? You
could set up a Master File to do this. Then apply a
Template to add any necessary Headers, Footers and fancy
bits.
Provided the HTML was Styled properly to begin with, you
should even be able to write a simple macro to add a table
of contents.
(But then, I guess since the office junior could do this,
you'd be out of a job - smile!)
All the best,
George.
