In the awk below I use $2 of filet to search filea for a match. If the values in $2 are exact match this works great. However, that is not always the case, so I need to perform the search using a range of + or - 2. That is if the value in filea $2 is within + or - 2 of filet $2 then it is matched. Thank you .

In file1 field $18 is removed.... column header is "Otherinfo", then each line in file1 is used to search file2 for a match. When a match is found the last four strings in file2 are copied to file1.
Maybe:
cut -f1-17 file1 and then match each line to file2

If $1 in file1 matches $2 in file2. Then the value in $2 of file2 is updated to $1"."$2 of file2. The awk seems to only match the two files but not update. Thank you :).
