Vlad, If you know the names and locations of the files you may be able to shell a copy command to add the three files together..... i.e. COPY C:\File1.txt + C:\File2.txt + C:\File3.txt C:\FinalFile.txt Or could you export the three files, then creat a union query to add the files/tables together, then export the union query ?

Now the company requires that these 3 files be melded into 1 text file only as apparently their import procedure knows when to import the one file into separate tables at their end. I have no problem creating the 3 separate text files, but how do you go about melding these 3 separate files into 1? Any ideas most welcome...
