@Bartus11: Thanks again for the comments and all your help .... I'll be back with more Smilie ...Hv a nice evening/day whatever fits ur local time

@ctsgnb:
Thank you too. I already knew about the uniq command but not about the -u and -d options .... guess I could have done a
Code:
man uniq

, but its much nicer to hear from you all .... I'm loving programming , even if I can only script a few lines of code ... keep the good info coming this way ... Merci (guessing ur French) Smilie

---------- Post updated at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous update was at 02:45 PM ----------

I actually have a question already ....concerning the same files we a dealing with .... now my output file contains a series of lines with 9 fields ...
In a normal file I could have done [CODEsort -n -k9CODE]
For me the complication arises because I need to sort with a parameter in the 9th field but it contains a series of information delimited by semicolons. An example is shown below ... Now say for example I wanted to sort the data by coverage, which is embedded with the other info in feild 9, how do I do that ? And would be nice if the code could tell the maximum and minimum "sorting parameter" for that particular file .... I hope I'm clear ...
Could you please help out on this Smilie

Thanks very much

Code:

@Bartus11

Code:
x=`sort file_1`;for i in file_2 file_3; do x=`comm -12 <(echo "$x") <(sort $i)`; done; echo "$x"
