Simon's solution[1] could be done in a one liner (or several if you want to build the command from variables first). QSH CMD('cat file1 file2 > file3; rm file2; mv file3 file2')>> Martin, thanks for info. I'm not upto scratch on QShell and your response has whetted my apetite to learn more. BTW I presume if using it in RPG I would just wrap it in QCmdExc? I'll probably still stick to programming it using IFS api's because I don't want to start introducing QSH into my cmds as it is an optional feature and secondly cat is not really an append as it involves three files, and if files were large would have a bigger performance hit . . . . but it would do the job very concisely ________________________________________ Rod Orr
