Thanks all who responded,

Iam just interested to compare only format level identifier, I brought the two files onto one system by FTP... I dont want to compare on two AS/400 sessions going line by line , if there is any difference in format level identifiers of two files it should show me the difference upon calling the program, how do I go abuot that?

  Yes, you can safely use DSPFD for both files and write the results in the
same file. Then you can use a query to list both and see for the
differences:

DSPFD FILE(MYLIB/MYFILE1) TYPE(*RCDFMT) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)
OUTFILE(QTEMP/RESULTS) OUTMBR(*FIRST *ADD)
DSPFD FILE(MYLIB/MYFILE2) TYPE(*RCDFMT) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)
OUTFILE(QTEMP/RESULTS) OUTMBR(*FIRST *ADD)

Just an idea...
