If you know the order of each of the 6 files you can join them all together in an editor like WordPad in Win95. Just load the first file and then paste the second behind it - etc. Then save as one single large file. As long as there aren't extraneous characters floating around and make sure no blanks between the joins then I think it should then load to CFT-Win. Hope this helps.
