Merge Files and Combine Files – A Quick Way to Combine or Merge CSV Files
Here is a video tutorial on how to mergie CSV files I whipped up for you all. Believe me, if you’ve been merging CSV files by hand, you NEED to learn how to combine CSVs automatically! Best of all? It’s easy, and it’s free.
Let’s go!
Here are the quick steps from that tutorial:
1) Choose Start->Run
2) Enter “cmd”
3) Enter the following:
copy C:\*.csv C:\[filname].csv
…replacing the path and filename with your own information.
4) Hit the enter key.
Enjoy!

Does anyone know how to combine the files such that each file is put into a seperate column? This seems to combine the files in one long column?

Hi Melanie,
That’s great!!
i’ve tested and it’s merge but need some amendmen.
For example i’ve 2 csv files:-
one.csv –
USD1-36864
USD2-47611
USD3-45354
two. csv –
AED1-56
AED2-47
AED3-47
Expected output -
AED1-56
AED2-47
AED3-47
USD1-36864
USD2-47611
USD3-45354
but i got:
AED1-56
AED2-47
AED3-47USD1-36864
USD2-47611
USD3-45354
i dont want any human invention of the file created.
