@ Raj

When I m running the code on my big files the output is nothign but just combination of file1 and file 2 no change further

For eg if u can just check in the attached two files

file drug contain name of drugs and disease in front of those

file drugbandrugs contains name of Symbols and then name of drugs

so it should search the drug name in the drug file and if matched than write the disease name in front of it in output.

And what is this line 55?
