I believe your syntax here is incorrect.  It should be:

  #+include: "/path/to/org/file.org"

Welcome to Org mode; I wrote my thesis in Org mode last year although I
went with the one-big-file way.

Thanks for your response. I just checked that both forms work. Actually I had inserted the files interactively using the org key binding: <I TAB. 
I did come across your posts in the mailing list. Your contributions have been useful.
