Without a sample of your data, this sounds like you want to use join. Given you have the 3 files X, Y and Z with the following content: $ cat X 1 x1 2 x2 3 x3 $ cat Y 1 y1 2 y2 3 y3 $ cat Z 1 z1 2 z2 3 z3 If you don't have the line numbers, then you can easily create them with e.g. "cat -n X". Then you can join X and Y (column 1 will be the key), and join the result (indicated by stdin "-") with Z: $ join X Y | join - Z 1 x1 y1 z1 2 x2 y2 z2 3 x3 y3 z3 Have a nice day, Berny
