[IDV #ZRX-552448]: combine ltm files

Tyler,

It is our understanding that single variables are contained in individual files
and you wish to create a derived formula that spans those individual
files/variables. Is this correct?

Instead of loading the directory, load the individual files. Subsequently,
create the formula from that loaded data.

If we are barking up the wrong tree, please point us to where we may find some
of these data and we will take a closer look.

Best,
