Hi.

Hopefully this is a simple thing and you won't mind helping an old man
whose mind isn't as sharp as it once was.

I have two files, the first with two fields, one containing known data, and
the second empty. The second file also contains two fields, one that
matches the first field in the first file, and the second contains data
that I want to place in the first file's empty folder by matching the other
fields.

I would just combine the files with matching data except that the matching
field in the first file actually contains multiple pieces of data separated
by semicolons. What I hope to do is write a script in the first file that
first grabs one piece of data from that field and then match it to the
second file field, and then copy the other field's data into the first
file's empty field. Hope this makes sense.

Is this doable?

Thanks,
Charlie
