= SUMMARY =

If you want to batch print your documents with Word Versions 2.x and 3.x, set up a document that has only Include statements, as follows:


 * 1) Put in one Include statement for each of the documents you want to print.
 * 2) Execute the Print Merge command.
 * 3) To ensure that each document begins on a new page, specify a page break between each of the Include statements by typing CTRL+SHIFT+ ENTER.

Word Versions 4.00 and 5.00 can perform batch printing through the Library Document-Retrieval command, which allows you to select the documents from a directory listing and then print them.

If you are using Word 5.00, run the supplied macro in MACRO.GLY, Chainprint.Mac, which prints all documents listed in an associated file.
