A bit of an odd one here.

I'm used to getting lots of data in txt format i.e. name, address, zipcode and having to compare two lists of peoples names to see if any of them live at the same address.

There must be a script knocking about out there that can take two lists i.e. zipcodes (Uk zipcodes contain letters) and compare them and show if any match?

Think I made a script like this up in college as part of my computing course. Wish I had kept it...

Any ideas?

You might also want to look into using something more complex like a database or even arrays
