Delete lines containing key words dynamically

Hi Frens,

I have a requirement where I need to delete lines having key words and am using the below command to do that

Code:

sed '/UNIX/d' inputfile > output

But now I have one more requirement where in there will be one reference file which has the ID's to be deleted from the master file.

Eg:

Master File

Code:

ID,NAME
1,XX
2,YY
3,ZZ
4,DD

Reference File

Code:

ID
2
3

So my output file should be

Code:

ID,NAME
1,XX
4,DD

It would be helpful if you can let me know how we can acheive it dynamically.
