Please find enclosed the routine catfiles.
A slightly more sophisticated way of doing it.

Subject: Combining Text Files?
Importance: High

Hello:

Using DataStage, I am trying to combine 5 text files into one text file
similar to what is done in DOS with the following command:


"COPY file1.txt+file2.txt+file3.txt+file4.txt+file5.txt filecomb.txt"

After executing this command, filecomb.txt would then contain the combined
contents of the original files. There are no keys to the original files,
since these are only CSV files.

I know this is a simple question, but is there a stage in DataStage that
will do this? Ive already looked at Merge and Sort. If there isnt a Stage

to do this, how difficult would be to write one and add it to the routines?

TIA,

The listserver is set to strip out attachments. You will have to send them direct to each other.

Or, send it to me and ask to have it put up in the Files area when I get the website setup .

Last time I checked, DSX files were just text, so you could past the contents of the file into the body of the message. -----Original Message-----
