how do i print several different office docs in a particular order

Can anyone help me work out how to print several office documents in a
particular order?

I have to put together a booklet made up of about 4 different word files, 8
different Excel files, and a PowerPoint file. I have to make several of
these booklets.

Rather than print them all and then have to sort them all into order
manually, is there a way I can set the files to print in a particular order,
and to print several copies of the lot?

(I wish there was a way to sort them all into the right order, sort of like
when you sort PowerPoint slides, and then hit print!)

Your help and suggestions gratefully received.

If you have a full version of Adobe Acrobat or one of its many
shareware/freeware clones, then you can convert each of the 13
files to separate PDF files, combine the 13 PDF files in the
order you want into one PDF file, and then print the one PDF file
as many times as needed.

Thanks for such swift help. Unfortunately I'm on a work computer, without
Adobe Acrobat, and am not allowed to download freeware. I shall have to
request it. But perhaps there is another way to do it with MS Office?

There was a feature called Binder in Office 97 and 2000 that
could do something like what you're thinking, but the Binder
feature is not included with Office XP or 2003.

Thanks. That is a real shame. This Binder feature sounds like it would have
been perfect. Best wishes.
