Hi CheriC,

GB has the option to include files (or other GB-reports) on the Sections
Page of Report Options. The helpfile says: "A report is divided into
sections. Each section has a heading and a contents. You can add, rename,
and remove sections. Most report sections are named and generated
automatically. You can include the contents of file as a section on the
report. You can even include another Genbox report as a section."

Haven't worked with it but just gave it a try and after some experimenting
it seems to work, at least with rtf-files. A GB-report gave me a warning:
"Unsupported Input Format, File: filename.grt
