You can very well Try... No, sorting, no formatting... Smilie
Code:
$ grep -v -f file1 file2
abc 112 112
$ grep -v -f file2 file1
abc 112 111
xyz 100 000

@rakesh,

Nope i was looking in same format as before..... the one using sdiff code worked fine except for records which are missing...
And its not file1 against file2 or vice verse.. Have to compare both files.. See example belore again:
File1

abc 1 1 1
abc 2 2 2
abc 3 3 3
abc 5 5 5

File2

abc 1 1 1
abc 2 1 2
abc 3 3 3
abc 4 4 4

Output:

abc 2 2 2 | abc 2 1 2
| abc 4 4 4
abc 5 5 5 |
