Hi, 

I have many files which look like this:
"
2009/02/07 12:30:10.0      5.0161      13.208
2009/02/07 12:45:10.0      5.0102      13.350
2009/02/07 13:00:10.0      5.0044      13.473
....
....
....
2009/02/07 16:30:10.0      4.9366      13.788
2009/02/07 16:45:10.0      4.9397      13.798
end data.
"
Thanks to this thred, I can read them all in automatically.
each file is uniquely named "site_name".txt and as you can see, there are no
headers in the files
I would like to add a new column with "site_name" repeated for each
observation 
which corresponds to the name of the file the data came from AND also merge
the files vertically into one huge 
data file.  
I am just learning R and would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks ahead of time.
