RE: Quick SQL How to Question

["Walden H. Leverich" <WaldenL@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What are you trying to accomplish. If you want to know where two files are
different you could combine them into a third file and then do a

select * from thirdfile group by fld1, fld2, fld3, fldlast having count(*)
<> 2

Which would show you row that are in one file and not the other.

Subject: Quick SQL How to Question



    To the List:

            Anyone know of a simple way to generate in SQL the function of
CMPPFM or a Unix Diff.. I really need SQL so that it is Transportable to a
couple of different SQL based DBs and OS enviroments.

        Thanks,
        JMS..
