There have been quite a few posts to the lists lately about merging
XML files.  Check the archives and the faq, or heck, just googling
xslt merging gave me quite a few useful links.  Without more
information it's difficult to give much advice.  Look at the
document() function.

Are you simply concatenating the files together under a similar tree?
That's the easiest case.  But often people are picturing something
more like a diff/merge where there are issues of conflicts and the
like.  What about duplicates, ordering, etc?   The concept of
"merging" often seems semantically loaded, that is, merging two
invoices is different from merging two recipes.

Or this is just early morning brain fog on my part and there's an easy
answer.
