Hi.
Couldn't find any mention of this feature when I searched...
Does Dopus have a function (or user created button) that will concatenate files ending with 001, 002, 003 etc?
Thx

Yep, select the files and then use File -> File Commands -> Join.
Check they're in the correct order before clicking OK (you can drag them up & down the list if not).
If you use it a lot, you can move the Join command to a more convenient menu, toolbar or hotkey, of course. 
That's how to do it!
Thanks.
HJSplit goes in the garbage now.

But remember where to get it so that you can pass the link on to people who are not fortunate enough to own a copy or three of DOpus.
Join command
I sent off a question to technical support saying that I was not able to join some 30 Word documernts. From the reponse I got it seems to say that join can only be used if the files were split previously. Is this correct? In which case it is a "rejoin cammand"
If Dopus 10 (just bought ) doesn't do this can anyone recommend a utility that has a "true" join command?

The Join tool in Opus (and most other programs) will literally join the raw data files together.
That does not make sense with Word documents, which cannot be joined in that way because the Word file format doesn't work like that. It is like crashing two cars into each other to try to make a stretch limousine. 
If you want to append Word documents together you should probably look for a Word macro which does it. That's how I would implement it, since almost nothing except Word itself (and Open Office and a handful of other tools) understands Word's file format, and since Word's VBA language provides the tools you'd need to join multiple documents together.
