Hi srikanthgr1 ,

Let me clarify about your files content, whether all the file has same content or different?

if all the has some content of information i will suggest you one solution,

do the following steps:

1. check the line of the each and every files, if equal
2. set the line number of the every files
eg: suppose your file has 15 lines, you want remove the 14 th and 15 th lines from the file and store it in the new file.
3. sed -n '1,13p' <filename.extn> > Newfile

let me know if it's through error.

Regards,
Siva.P

rmm(1)							      General Commands Manual							    rmm(1)

NAME
rmm - remove messages (only available within the message handling system, mh) SYNOPSIS
rmm [+folder] [msgs] [-help] OPTIONS
Prints a list of the valid options to this command. The default settings for this command are: +folder defaults to the current folder msgs defaults to the current message DESCRIPTION
The rmm command deletes the current message from the current folder. You can specify messages and folders other than the current ones by using the +folder and msgs arguments. The current message is not changed by rmm, so a next will advance to the next message in the folder as expected. If you have defined a component rmmproc: in your file, then instead of simply renaming the message file, rmm will call the named program to delete the file. The rmm command removes messages by renaming the message files with a preceding comma. Many sites consider files that start with a comma to be a temporary backup, and arrange for cron(8) to remove such files once a day. PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine your Mail directory rmmproc: Program to delete the message FILES
