title: File not found: trying to append csv data in Stata
body: <p>I have some .csv files in the same directory and I am trying to <code>append</code> these in Stata. But when I use <code>append</code>, Stata cannot find the next file. My code is the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>cd "C:\mydir"
  insheet using "file1.csv", clear
  append using "file2.csv"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>With the last line, I obtain the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>file file2.csv not found
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have more expertise with R and I know this procedure is similar to <code>rbind</code>.</p>
