So what I'm looking to do is, 'pad out' the shorter file, by adding in the rows with those that are 'missing' from the longer file (ie. if a particular coordinate isn't present in the shorter file but is in the 'longer/master' file), and having 'zero' as its Population Density value (column C).

        Aaaaaaarrrrrrghhhhhhhhhh!!! Zero is not the same as a missing value.
Surely to gumdrops you should say ``having NA as its Population Density value''.

        Elsewise you are lying about your data.
