Hi, Teryl,

Thanks for your interest in FastBit.

If your data are already in the format usable by FastBit, then there 
is function called ibis::part::append that can put two data partitions 
together.

Of course, you can always write your own function to extend an 
existing data partition if your input data is not exactly in the 
format FastBit likes..

John
