Thanks. I got it. Not sure how to use it tho. I have never done video editing of any kind.

Windows Movie Maker maybe?

By default it's set to 'direct stream copy' on audio, and 'full processing mode' on video. If you're just combining two files (they must have the same framerate, btw, and same audio codec & bitrate), you want both on 'direct stream copy'. So open the first file in VDub, set video to direct stream copy, append the second file, then save as avi -> name it. Make sure you have enough room, video editing tends to eat up hard drive space.

DIKO is what I use. But that uses many video files and makes them a dvd image. I don't believe it makes it into a large avi, mpeg or whatever if that's what you're looking for.

Thanks. I wasn't sure how to do it till I read your post. It helped a lot and I got what I needed.
