Appending files

Hi all,

I need my application to append some rather large files, (almost 2 gig
each).

I am currently opening each file into tfilestream objects, on then using
copyfrom function to append one stream to the end if another.

As i am appending all of the file, if there a faster was to do the append.
Get windows to chaneg to filesystem pointer, for example, to make 3 files
appear as one?

If there a faster way to copy the stream than tfilestream.copyfrom? This
takes ages to copy all the data over.

Thanks
