in reply to issue with output of file matching

In describing the issue, you mention that the carryover file needs to be appended to file 1. File 1 data, then carryover data added to it.

In the example of what you need the output to look like, the carryover data is prepended to file 1. Carryover data, then file 1 data added to it.

Is this part of the problem you're looking to solve, or is it a copy-and-paste error when composing the post ?

    I did figure out the formatting issue appending from carryover file to file1. So that seems to have helped some. I still do not match up because merging of the two files requires the company name be identical - however I must know which records were from the carryover file in the final output...any help is appreciated, thanks
