Geoff,
No I didn't, I didn't know this command.
I'll give it a try tomorrow.
One mistake in my post: I wrote back slashes instead of slashes.
Thanks!
Charles

Charles,
Would it be easier to use the "comm" command?
comm -23 file1.txt file2.txt
will print all the lines of file1.txt except those that are common to
file2.txt, assuming sorted.
Unless I've misinterpreted what you are doing.
Regards,
Geoff Gigg
