Shell/Perl logic for loop

Hi,
I have a requirement as follows. Have 3 files. Need to match up the data in each one of them and sum up the data by a field and display it. example given below.

File 1 : Name, Emp id
File 2 : Empid, Subject,
File 3 : Subject, Score, Class

Match Emp id in File 1 and File 2 and then match up Subject from File 2 and File 3 and print the results.

O/p 1 - Name, Emp id, Subject , Score, Class.

Now group the details by the Empid and print the data. One added feature needed is the score can be negative. So if we could print the +ve and -ve seperately at Emp id is betetr.

Currently I am using a combination of Shell, Database join and macro to do this wrork. Want to eliminate the DB and macro. Please assist.

PS: This is NOT an assignment.

Thanks and Regards,
Gideon.
