[Solved] Matching and transposing
Hi,

I've got two files.

files one:

HTML Code:
AAMP	2:219129783:A:G	
 AAMP	2:219129896:A:G	
 AAMP	2:219130802:T:C	
 AANAT	17:74464865:T:G	
 AANAT	17:74464914:A:G	
 AANAT	17:74464920:T:C

file 2:
HTML Code:
AAMP
AANAT
I need to create the following file:

HTML Code:
AAMP	2:219129783:A:G  2:219129896:A:G  2:219130802:T:C	
 AANAT	17:74464865:T:G	 17:74464914:A:G 17:74464920:T:C
[

Basically, the first column of file one is matched to first column of file two and all the lines of file one matching column one in file 2 are then transposed and printed in one line, next to the first column of file two.

I am afraid my awk knowledge is not enough to solve this one.
If anyone can offer a solution, I would very very grateful!!!!

Many thanks for your time and help in advance!

Try:
Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{A[$1]=A[$1] OFS $2; next}{print $1, A[$1]}' file1 file2
