Finding the odd one out!

Hi guys, I wondered if someone would be able to help me.

I have a number of files which all have entries in them looking something like;

Quote:
100,101,102,103...etc
And I'm looking for a way where by I can compare a number of these files and identify the odd numbers in the sequence.

So for example if I had to files looking like;

Quote:
100,101,102
Quote:
100,101,102,103
It would show 103 as the odd one out..

Any ideas would be great!

Thanks, Jamie
