Comparing two files.

Hi Gurus,

                I have a quite simple problem in comparing two files, but a
diff -i, isn't going to work. Both files contain billing numbers e.g one has
more billing numbers than the other. So example would be one contains 200
numbers the other contains 200 matching numbers + another 50 but the other
50 are all over the place in the 2nd file not just at the end.

6312894
4100293
6024135
235689
457832
418076

How can I get it so it will match all the same numbers in both files, and
show me the 50 that don't match. A diff command only does it line per line.

Alistair.
