input-filespec[,...] Specifies the names of one or more input files to be appended. Multiple input files are appended to the output file in the order specified. If you specify more than one input file, separate each file specification with either a comma (,) or a plus sign (+). The asterisk (*) and the percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed in the input file specifications. output-filespec Specifies the name of the file to which the input files will be appended. You must specify at least one field in the output file specification. If you do not specify a device or directory, the APPEND command uses the current default device and directory. Other unspecified fields default to the corresponding fields of the first input file specification. If you use the asterisk (*) wildcard character in any fields of the output file specification, the APPEND command uses the corresponding field of the input file specification. If you are appending more than one input file, the APPEND command uses the corresponding fields from the first input file.
