Not sure if you want something that runs on your computer or online?

Either way joining text files is pretty simple with a small bit of programming.

On your Windows computer you can do it at the command line using the "cat" command. You may also want to see this if you have a lot of files to concatenate:

On your web server you can do this with PHP or ASP - both languages allow you to append text to existing text files. You just need to open the file, append its contents to another file and repeat the process for each file you have.

on linux, unix, macOs or any other *nix system its this command.
Code:

cat file1.txt file2.txt > combinedfile.txt
It's been awhile since I've tried this on a Windows box, but I believe the windows command (from the command line) would be
Code:

type file1.txt file2.txt > combinedfile.txt
Hope that helps.
- Thanks
