Hi Arun:

Thanks for your help. Seperate files are being created by concatenating the
rows from the two files but I was looking to have them as columns rather
than text. This is the way it appears in Excel with row # at the beginning.
X Y1 Y2
1 1 4 0 20 17 1 20 52 15 18

Ideally I would like it to look like
X Y1 Y2
1 4 20
1 0 52
1 20 15
1 17 18
Thanks again!
Anamika
