Thanks a lot alister
It is not typo. It should consider this as empty line and continue to compare.
I am generating files daily and i am comparing files generated today and on any previous days.
The data in the files are generated in sorted order, so i need to compare files to find the missing/changed line/new entry.
@shamrock: thank you for your quick response. i will test this out today.
