Hello,

I am looking for some advise.  I am working on a project, this project
requires that I compare records from 2 files.  File A and File B.  File
A is the primary file and File B is the secondary file.  I need to
compare the records that are in File A to the records in File B.  What I
am having a problem with is if there is a record in File B that is not
in File A I need to know that.  I Was going to read File A and chain out
to File B to see if the record exists in File B.  I am having problems
on how to determine if there is a record in File B that is not in File
A.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg Weber (IGRWU@Packerland.com)
