<h2 class="chapter">10 Combining Data Files</h2>

<p>This chapter describes commands that allow data from system files,
portable files, and open datasets to be combined to
form a new active dataset.  These commands can combine data files in the
following ways:
</p>
<ul>
<li> <code>ADD FILES</code> interleaves or appends the cases from each input file.
It is used with input files that have variables in common, but
distinct sets of cases.

</li><li> <code>MATCH FILES</code> adds the data together in cases that match across
multiple input files.  It is used with input files that have cases in
common, but different information about each case.

</li><li> <code>UPDATE</code> updates a master data file from data in a set of
transaction files.  Each case in a transaction data file modifies a
matching case in the primary data file, or it adds a new case if no
matching case can be found.
</li></ul>

<p>These commands share the majority of their syntax, which is described
in the following section, followed by one section for each command
that describes its specific syntax and semantics.
