I think I know what the problem is. I am creating both files in the same script above and then I have this code to compare. But if I put the comparison code in a different file, it works!

    Are their file handles closed before comparsion?
    Sorry if my advice was wrong.

      Oh no. I practically just gave up because I was at it for over an hour. Then I did some of the things you told me to do and it just hit me so thanks again for your help!
