You can not directly combine chartbooks. You would have to duplicate the charts to a single chartbook using the command "Chart >> Duplicate Chart to Chartbook" or "Chart >> Duplicate All Chart to Chartbook". Refer to the information starting at the following and the section below it:
Chart Menu: Duplicate Chart To Chartbook (Chart menu)

Thank you so much Sir
sorry Sir the next question is how come the 5 min chart is not in sync with the Market Profile and Footprints when i put on Replay? Did change the contract to June so i can go further back. and i only put the date on Replay on july 3?thanks again Sir

First, make sure that all the charts have the same symbol and the same amount of data loaded. If you need to go back far enough, then make sure that you are using a "Continuous Futures Contract" for all the charts. Refer to the following:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts

Then, make sure you are using an option on the Chart Replay Control Panel to replay either "All Charts in Chartbook" or "Charts with Same Link Number". If you are using the "Charts with Same Link Number", then make sure that the charts all have the same link number so they will replay together.

Also refer to the following:
Replaying Charts: Preventing Loss of Synchronization Between Different Charts During Replay

And also look through the rest of the information on the above page for Replays.
