The text editor probably won't handle binary files. you can use
the doc command:

copy/b part1/b+part2/b+part3/b+.....partn/b combo/b

The 'plus' character appends the source documents 'added' together
and the /b tells dos to strip control-z from end of file and to not
interpret control-z as eof during the copy; and the combo/b tells
dos to not add a control-z to the output file.

Good luck.
