there are two ways of merging XML files. Optmized way and 
Generalized way. If it's to be an optimized way, then, you should 
be knowing the XML structure of both your xml files before hand, 
so that you can write your XSL in such a way to merge both of them 
into one single one. The other one, takes in any two XML files and 
merges both of them. But there is a *catch*, what are the rules 
for merging both the xml files? What are the elements in the two 
files you are going to merge? Is it name dependant of is it level 
dependant, etc..? You should clearly define the rules for merging 
two xml files. Here is a link to the generalized merger (with some 
rules) written by Oliver:

This is a good starting point. If you can show your files, you 
might be getting a more specific answer.

Thanks,
Kalyan.
