Dear Rudic,
What does file12 stand for in this case?
Here is my console:

Code:
root@vps112233:~/test# awk '
> NR == FNR       {getline TMP
>                  $1 = ""
>                  T[$0] = TMP
>                  next
>                 }
>                 {TMP = $0
>                  sub ($1, "", TMP)
>                 }
> TMP in T        {print
>                  print T[TMP]
>                 }
>  ' FileA FileB

It gives empty result

Thanks
Boris

It is not file12, but file[12], which will be expanded by the shell to file1 file2. Your FileA FileB should do.
Applied to your sample in post#1, it gives the result shown in post#6. Did you use exactly the sample files from post#1? Check for spurious spaces in either, or other peculiarities.

Dear Rudic,
Have just got the meaning of [] notation now,
Output is the same as I expected. Thank you so much! You are a star!

Kind regards
Boris
