Word lets you insert different types of objects into your document. For example, you can insert worksheets from Excel, images, media clips, and so on. You can even insert text from another document into the document you are currently working on.
To insert text from another file:
- Within your document, click where you want to insert the text.
- On the Insert tab, in the Text group, click the arrow next to Object, and then click Text from File.
- In the Insert File dialog box, locate the file that you want, and then double-click it.

When I do this, the images are not ported over. Is there a way to merge multiple word.doc files into one document, while still retaining the images contained within the original word.docs?
When I do an Insert > Text from File, it brings over all the text, but leaves an empty broken image spacer (same dimensions of the image) where the images should be.

As Kevin said, inserting from another Word document is the key. Adobe Acrobat has a feature that allows you to merge two PDF files. Word must have something of the kind too.
