haha thanks for the boom! tip, it worked a treat.

Also I figured out where I was going wrong, my original code was

Code:
find /u/Picarro/DataLog/2011/june -type f -name "*dat" -exec cat {} >> june.dat \;

so I just removed one '>' and it worked. My fault, sorry!

Thanks for the help though, you've been great!
