Hi Daniel,

If you are using Windows OS, you could use the command "COPY".

Step 1-  put in the same directory all "TPS" files.
Step 2-  execute the command prompt (in windows SO cmd.exe)
Step 3- and then write the following command

COPY *.tps NEW.tps

this command will take all files whit extention "TPS" and will bring
toghether into a single file "NEW.tps"

If you wish put the file in a specific order then you could write

COPY file1.tps+file2.tps+file3.tps NEW.tps

Good luck!!
