Hi Shanthi,

Could you explain your requirement with an example.

You have put the requirement in the COBOL section so are u looking for some kind of logic ?

Unless they are sorted on the same key, your comparison requires a program to either sort one file to match the other, or putting the data into a table (assuming that can be done) for the compare.

What a nonsense "requirement". . . Hopefully, this is just some misunderstanding.
