how to convert contents of 3 text files in a folder with one click

Task: I have 3 text files in a folder and need this to be made in a one single text file with the contents going one after each other.
I am new to programming and would like to find out how would you approach such a task. Can an executable (.exe, .com, etc.) be written to perform it? What programming language or tools (environment) one would would use to code it? Are there other ways to execute the above task (besides of course opening each text file and copy-paste contents manually).

A great help will be the COPY command, which is available in Windows, as it was in MS-DOS.

This statement can be used to create BATCH-files
