Q&A for How to Insert a File Into a Word Document

Open Microsoft Word. On the top left menu choose Insert. Choose File. Browse through your file system to the file you want. Click on the file name. Choose Insert. For an existing document, place the cursor at the point you want to insert the document, then follow the above instructions. You can also choose a range of pages substituting the final Insert with Range.

Read and follow the instructions listed in the article above.

Okay, where is the document? All documents are files. If you don't like the current format, save it to another format, or copy the material into another file in a standard format. If desperate, take a screenshot by pressing the PrintScreen key and pasting it into a Word document. Save it and you'll have a file. If you mean the document is a physical piece of paper and not on your computer, you can either scan it or just take a picture of it with your phone.

It's automatic. If you insert the file as an icon, Word displays the document name under the icon. You could edit that, but it's simplest to rename the inserted file beforehand. Match the name displayed closely to the file you introduce.

If you attach the files in the aforementioned way, it would not be accessible to anyone else.
