Hello.
I'm looking to separate data from Two files to provide
the difference. Has anyone accomplished anything
similar ? what would be the best way to do it ?
Basically, The files are available as CSV and/or tab
delimited
Data in One is:-
Field One = ID Field Two = First Name Field Three =
Last Name Field Four = Email address Field Five =
another code
0123456 John Williams [EMAIL
PROTECTED]
vsyter5793
I have second list with a format of :-
Field One = First Name Field Two = Last Name Field
Three = Email address
John Williams [EMAIL
PROTECTED]
The order is different, and there may be more or less
entries in either One.
I would like to compare the First files Field Four
(email address) against the Second files Field Three
(email address).
If there is a match, export the file One's entire line
to a new file, Three.
If there is NO match, I would like to export the
entire line to new file, Four
ie.
a) email addresses in file One that are in file two,
export the whole line from file One to file Three.
b) email addresses in file One that are NOT in file
Two, export the whole line from file One to file Four.
c) email addresses in file Two that are not in file
One, export the whole line from file Two to file Four.
This should give :-
1) A new File Three with email addresses in both
files but with Five fields.
2) A new file Four with email addresses NOT in
either file, some with 3 fields, some with 5 fields.
I suppose it would be nice to adjust the part c) so
they moved to the correct field location.
Any clue's, ideas, code, pointers.
Regards....
