Comparison of fields in Files

Hello,
I have two files with tab delimited data. The file will contain details something like below:

FILENAME.A.B.C. 3 5 VALID PROCESSED

I would have a bench mark file. I would be getting new files of the same format. My requirement is to compare a particular field for a particular filename and give out whether it matches to the benchn mark or not.

For Instance, I may need to check the validity count for a filename xyz. First I need to search for the filename xyz in the bench mark file and find the valid count, then search the filename xyz in the input file and see with the valid count matches.

I hope I am clear on what is required. Please let me know the best way this can be achieved using shell scripting. Is there any UNIX commands to handle this kind of comparsion??

Thanks a lot in advance.
