There are no native T-SQL commands that would append two files. You can use whatever you would use in Windows to append the files, but invoke it from T-SQL using xp_cmdshell. For example:EXEC xp_cmdshell 'type C:\temp\TRIBUTE_IND >> c:\temp\TRIBUTE.TXT';EXEC xp_cmdshell 'type C:\temp\TRIBUTE_GRP >> c:\temp\TRIBUTE.TXT'; |

Good morning! :)Appends the command output to the end of a file without deleting the information that is already in the file.See here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490982.aspx |
