Dear Vgersh99,
My idea:
while read comparison file, grep each matching line > create a new file but then when I am gonna paste two files, it will fail I think. I do not like awk as I do not understand and unable to edit in my future needs. I suppose I need to learn how stuff works with awk command.

Please do not reply promptly. I am trying to learn awk command. Just let the baby crowl on the ground for 24h. Many thanks

Kind regards
Boris
