You can import Publisher files into your current Publisher document.
Look on the Insert tab just below WordArt.
As for TOC/Index, Publisher still remains a DTP application. When you
have a text box application trying to create Indexes and a TOC is
darn near impossible. It will remain a manual operation.

Hi, I've just been wading through the 2010 beta details, hoping to
find the following missing features are finally included.
1. the ability to import/merge publisher native files.
2. the ability to generate a table of contents/title index.
To my (very) simple mind the first is fundamental to any such
product. If I have a team working on large product, the need for all
of them to access the core file set is not only impractical but
downright dangerous. They must be able to work on and only on their
assigned part of the project. These parts are then compiled into the
final product at or near the end of the project. Not with Publisher,
unless you know different. The second is a basic requirement of a DTP!
TGo transfer the
publication into 'Word' to accomplish this a) is impractical in a
large publication, and b) dosn't work! onlt the text makes it
accros, if you're lucky. ----------------

Which version of Publisher Mary, Under the Insert tab in 2007, I don't
even have wordart, that's buried under picture.
As to ToC in DTP whether its easy or impossible, to me, it's a
requirement!
