The line AppendFiles(TextBox1.Text, "c:\DB\append\Append.txt") just passes the folder into the sub not the files in the folder.
You also need to loop through the files in the folder. Something like this:
Dim theDir As DirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(iFile);
Dim datFiles As FileInfo()  = theDir.GetFiles("*.txt");

Using sw As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(oFile, True, System.Text.Encoding.Default)
   For Each (fi As FileInfo In datFiles)
      Using sa As StreamReader = New StreamReader(fi.FullName, System.Text.Encoding.Default)
         'read and write text
      End Using
   Next
End Using

Syntax might not be quite right - copied and edited from C# code - but the general idea is ok. Smile | :)
This is what your friend's Do...Loop was trying to do.
