in thread find common data in multiple files

"Do all your 25 filenames start pm_1206312_in and if not what are they like ?"

I think poj's original question was intended to provoke thought. If the glob pattern you're using is  'pm_1206312_in*' no file with a pattern  '4_os_*.txt' will be matched. Please see the documentation for glob and links therefrom for information on constructing glob filename patterns.
