You only need to open the files (they end in .htm), the folders should have the same names as the files, as they'll just be the images etc. referenced to in each of the files - so it's not as bad as it looks

Open the first HTML (MHT - see below!!) file in MSword (right click - open with), keep it open, then open the next, selectall and append it to the first, repeat for all of the files, when you have them all in a single word window, choose file - save as, and save the entire thing as a word document (.doc). There is an issue with pctures though, as they end up being linked, ie. they dont exist in the final document - so if you move it or the original html folders, they won't apperar any more.

EDIT!!! I think I've found a workaround for the pictures issue, you FIRSTopen each of the HTML files in internet explorer, then choose file - save as - web archive, single file (.mht).The pictures are now embeded in the file, so that when you convert to doc in word they are actually held within the document, and not simply linked to as an outside resource


Mobipocket files have the extension .prc, if you get hold of the creation software you can import .doc files into a blank publication, build it, and then view it on your phone with the free reader.

Hop this all makes sense!!

Sorry if I blinded you with science, but it really is pretty straightforward. Just a matter of openning your files in one format, saving them in another with internet explorer, openning your new files in word and adding them together to make a single document.

.html to .mht with IE
put all your mhts together in word
save to .doc

OR as a shortcut you can use this:

(there's a free demo)

to convert your original CHM file to a single HTML file that you can then open in word, and save as .doc.....
