Hi Ivan

When you say
> no success in merging several files into one

do you mean adding records from 2 or more files ionto a single file
without editing (that is, concatenating 2 or more files of records)?  Or
do you mean doing some sort of batch edit/merge on multiple files?

If you only want to add the records of one (or more) files into another
file, you could have a look at this
(https://secure-web.cisco.com/1i-BCPTLo2NIxwOpjYs05APJjEX5oL7w63vbwohRRhmQOn8uMkEuLi4XtPFOeUPwk2MEHNIQ-aqstYRrHMslwYemDjuxMHw_0RJ4nmLJANxWeky6nDI9mGwKd0VPtI0S_iPJPIs4YvHX3oGOsc-PXpzp6sywc1SESvcHFWSWSEGaZlInk8V8fzdEghSr7t1JEKk0-6MoUvOT8rON1aSY_A8SqPNku3Pxp2umfAa2e1wF38krfOJQ4zP0x7x85Bji0lUsXIEBkNWO2R00Rg3vsxHE7sHjjbwaS7Ky2JoiHNf2WNZ0vFKv_BjexfYRro8HK3VaYIKLHnAtcD4j4DQd-E6FI1caVefW3c7OzC7NruWaQr0-h7fFrqBfog88P5thbZSPmvfVTA4s6hKEBasQF4g/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.computerhope.com%2Fissues%2Fch001376.htm%29 (so if you're
dealing with *.mrk files you'd enter something like
"copy filea.mrk fileb.mrk filec.mrk outputfile.mrk"
into your command window).

On Linux or Mac it's just as easy:
open a terminal window at your folder location and enter
"cat filea.mrk fileb.mrk filec.mrk >> outputfile.mrk"

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Carlos.
