B Correct answer
Explanation

The MERGE stage in DataStage is specifically designed to join exactly TWO files or datasets. It cannot merge more than two inputs. For joining multiple data sources (more than two), you would need to use JOIN stages or use multiple MERGE stages in sequence. Therefore, the statement that more than two files can be joined using MERGE stage is false.
