Hi All. I need to try and figure this out. I am searching an array for exact mathes in another array. If found it must tell me and also tell me if not found. I wrote this script and it works, but the issue is it does a search for each seperate string, return with a match or not and follow through, so each I will end up with lines not matching, and matching. The script. 
    @array =
    (
    "54321" ,
    "54312" ,
    "5999" ,
    "54352" ,
    "12345"
    );
    
    @original =
    (
    "12345" ,
    "54321" ,
    "12355"
    );
    
    foreach $string(@array) {
    foreach $string2(@original) {
    if ($string eq $string2) {
    
    $found = 1;
    }
    else
    {
    $found = 0;
    }
    if ($found == 0) {
    print "$string not found\n";
    }
    else
    {
    
    print "$string found\n";

    }
    
    }
    
    }

The result. 54321 not found 54321 found 54321 not found 54312 not found 54312 not found 54312 not found 5999 not found 5999 not found 5999 not found 54352 not found 54352 not found 54352 not found 12345 found 12345 not found 12345 not found Result I want though is non repeated search results. like this. 12345 Found 54321 Found 12355 Not found 54312 Not found 5999 Not found 54352 Not found I know it seems like I am wanting to do to much as I can atleast see what is found and what not, but this script is just a small variant of it's big brother, the original script needs to read thousands of lines and give me comparisons. Much appreciated in advance!
