append file name contents to a target file

Hi ,

I want to append the contents of many files (not knowing exactly how many files, i will get) in to one target file on a day today basis.
The file names are similar except last value (which is sequence number)

eg) file1_20061026_1
file1_20061026_2 etc.,

How can i read all the files one by one and append it to the target file.
I am very new to unix and it would be great if i get help from Unix Gurus.

Thanks in advance,
gops
