Change the "titles" to "Parts" and copy paste the rest in.
Use Insert->Insert File->LyX file.

I think you miss out on some formatting, and you may have trouble with multiple
titles/authors and different preambles.
To make one super document, the title of the individual files should be a
"Part".
I just tried the insert method to combine a couple of files (tutorial and user
guide) and nothing came out due to a preamble problem.
You probably could pull some latex magick with if and include, but it would not
be very clean in lyx.
PC World comes up with a lot of tips. I used Paul Smith's
suggested method of joining them in one large yearly file
which I burned to a cd (with other stuff) and take to jobs.
I'll do this with the UG, Extended, and Customization.
I think a one or two line link/description of the LyX Wiki,
with mention of a searchable "Inclusive User Manual" (FAQ)
would suffice at the bottom of the splash.lyx which
shows up after an installation. I have grown tired of the
humor in the footnote. I'll just go ahead and do it and
you guys can see if its good enough. I will give it a
clever distinctive title like: "Little Known Enchantments
of the LyX Wizards" :-) Maybe that title won't pass the
newly incarnated guardian of the LyX Wiki Stygian portal.
I'll send another post when it is up with the location.
