I added set -x and the $STRING variable looks to contain only one of the $2 values from f1, instead of the three so the directory created is not the right one. Thank you very much Smilie.

f1
Code:
yyy_009 00-0000-xxx-xxx-xxx
yyy_004 00-0011-xxx-xxx-xxx
R_2019_00_00_00_00_00_xxxx_x0-00000-200_yyyyyyy

zzzz_0000 00-3333-zz-zz  --- not printed to $STRING currently, but should be for the comparison ---
zzzz_0005 00-1111-xxx-xxx  --- printed to $STRING currently ---
zzzz_0003 00-2222-yyy-yy   --- not printed to $STRING currently, but should be for the comparison  ---
R_2019_00_00_00_00_00_xxxx_x0-00000-123-v5.6_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxxx   ---- this is matched ---

$folder
Code:
zzzz_0005 00-1111-xxx-xxx  --- this is correct ---
zzzz_0003 00-2222-yyy-yy

so since
Code:
00-3333-zz-zz

is not in folder 00-3333-zz-zz/variants is created

Code:
+ for RDIR in '"$DIR"/R_2019*'
+ S5=R_2019_00_00_00_00_00_xxxx_x0-00000-123-v5.6_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxxx

+ cd /home/cmccabe/Desktop/new/R_2019_00_00_00_00_00_xxxx_x0-00000-123
++ awk -F '\n' -v RS= -v ref=R_2019_00_00_00_00_00_xxxx_x0-00000-123-v5.6_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx_xxxx '$0 ~ ref {print $2}' /home/cmccabe/Desktop/new/f1
+ STRING='zzzz_0005 00-1111-xxx-xxx'
+ for folder in '*[0-9]*/'
+ folder=00-1111-xxx-xxx
+ [[  zzzz_0005 00-1111-xxx-xxx  == *\ 00-1111-xxx-xxx\ * ]]
+ for folder in '*[0-9]*/'
+ folder=00-2222-yyy-yy
