Simple read files and write file

I have to create a simple program but I want it
to look as professional as possible.
The program needs to open a file on a network share
write the contents of a number of files to one file.
The files will contain many lines with a carrige return
at the end of each line. Each file will have the month
and the year in the file name which will be used to
determine which files are opened and read.

Again the problem sounds simple, but I want it to look
as good as possible. Any web sites with similar
information would be very helpful.

You might want to google for UI design sites.
Very much a matter of personal preference :)
"Professional" would maybe mean showing write progress and the ability to
cancel.
