Don't know where to post this question

[xoxoxoxoxoxox]

Hi, I don't know where to post this question so here it is.. I want to merge two text files. Lets say file1.txt & file2.txt and save merged data into file3.txt. file1.txt a b c file2.txt d e f file3.txt (result file) ad be cf So the file3.txt should contain parallel merged data from two files. I know its possible using excel macro/vba but i don't want to use excel. Is there any automated way to do that? any free software or code? I'll appreciate any response. Thanks

You want a program that does this, not to do it in code ? There's a ton of merge programs out there.  I use Araxis Merge.
