RE: Merging Multiple Flat Files

Yes, use a UNION between each select of data from each "flat file". I put that in quote because it's not an agreed upon term.

Here is an example:

select datafield
from flatfile1
union
select datafield
from flatfile2
union
select datafield
from flatfile3

I have a need to merge multiple flat files into a single file. There is duplicate data between the files which I want to remove. Can this be done with SQL?
