Hi Bobmard,

My 2008 MacWord does not have Word Help file for INCLUDETEXT
That's a drag.

OK, you should be able to do the insertion via Insert|Quick Parts|Field. Or you can create one via Ctrl-F9. Using Ctrl-F9 to create the field braces (ie '{}'), you'd simply fill in between the field braces so that you end up with:
{INCLUDETEXT "Drive:\\Filepath\\Filename.Extension"}
or:
{INCLUDETEXT "Drive:\\Filepath\\Filename.Extension" \!} (per my advice above)
Note that, whichever method you use, the path separators must have double backslashes. And, if you want to refer to just a part of another document, you bookmark that range and use:
{INCLUDETEXT "Drive:\\Filepath\\Filename.Extension" "bookmark name"}
