Sorry, I think I misunderstood your question in my last reply. I would not
advise trying to use solo samples to try to create a section sound. However,
I think that's somewhat the approach built in to the Garritan Personal
Orchestra. My guess is that it would be difficult and time-consuming.

What I do is mix different string SECTION libraries, and I often stagger the
start points of notes slightly, to blur the attacks and note changes, to get
a smoother, more realistic sound. But this is a fairly laborious process.
I'm hoping that developers will come out with a combination of samples and
synthesis to help deal with note transitions.
