Question diff 2 files; output diff's to 3rd file
Hello,
I want to compare two files. All records in file 2 that are not in file 1 should be output to file 3.

For example:

file 1
123
1234
123456

file 2
123
2345
23456

file 3 should have
2345
23456

I have looked at diff, bdiff, cmp, comm, diff3 without any luck!

Thanks for your help
Barbara
