Code:
AA001 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
File 1
AA002 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
File 1
AA003 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
File 1

Any other suggestions?
What OS and version are you using?

I get:

Code:
$ sed '/AC003/rfile1' file2
AA001 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
AB002 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
AC003 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
AD004 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1

Try a space between r and "file1":
Code:
sed '/AC003/r file1' file2

OK - you want it after each appearance of AC003?
Code:
awk '/AC003/ {print;while (getline<"file2">0) print; close("file2");next} {print}' file1

Scrutinizers genious line works also at my Solaris 8 WITH space
Code:
sed '/AC003/r file2' file1

Thanks ScrutinizerSmilie
