I have two files, both with an employee number at the beginning of the file. The first file contains only the employee number and the second file contains the employee number followed by additional employee information.
Is is possible to compare two files by specific character positions in the files; i.e., just compare the first 8 characters and tell me if they are the same or different?
If so, how can I do this?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
