I don't know ... I think the SQL version would be relatively
straightforward. Maybe something like
SELECT file1.field1, file1.field2....,file1.fieldN, file2.field1,
file2.field2....,file2.fieldN
FROM file1 LEFT EXCEPTION JOIN file2
ON <matching fields>
UNION
SELECT file1.field1, file1.field2....,file1.fieldN, file2.field1,
file2.field2....,file2.fieldN
FROM file1 RIGHT EXCEPTION JOIN file2
ON <matching fields>
For me, that's way easier than learning how to write a matching records
program, but that's because I've known SQL longer than RPG.
