Does it still need to be a Word document when you're done? An entirely 
different approach would be to use some kind of Word file display 
program and make PDFs of the files, then chain the PDFs together. Do 
the headers by slapping a white block over the existing headers and 
writing a new header over them.

Personally, my approach would be to abandon the project as just too 
messy for words. :)
