I like the union idea, but the 2 files don't have duplicate layouts and I
need more of the fields from file1 then file2.
Is there a way of creating a place holder field, something like
Select clientnumber, name, address, phonenumber from File1 Where phonenumber
= '2015551212'
Union
Select clientnumber, filler1, filler2, phonenumber * from File2 Where
phoneNumber = '2015551212';

Aren't we just talking a Union here?
Select * from File1 Where phonenumber = '2015551212'
Union
Select * from File2 Where phoneNumber = '2015551212';
