Code:

Please use code tags for all code.
What have you tried so far?

That depends on how you want the files' lines combined; every single file1 line with all file2 lines, file1 line1 with file2 line1, other?

A question for clarification.

Assuming you have two files with 5 records, do you want output that is the first or second?:-
Code:
1 1
1 2
1 3
1 4
1 5
2 1
2 2
2 3
:
etc.

or
Code:
1 1 
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5

it will be file1 line1 to file2 line1


while loop or for loop?

I dont know how to approach it

Code:
# Open file into FD 5
exec 5<file1
# Open file into FD 6
exec 6<file2

# Read from both files
while read -r LINE1 <&5 && read -r LINE2 <&6
do
        echo "Line1 is $LINE1"
        echo "Line2 is $LINE2"
done

# Close FD 5
exec 5<&-
# Close FD 6
exec 6<&-

This can be further improved if we knew what you were reading -- if you had tokens you needed split etc.

Where could i read into this FD?
Because man [fF][dD] gives me just the floppy-disk tool manpage, and i am very certain its not that.
