joining text files.


Hi,

I am writing a script that created two test files
tmp (file 1)
1,0001,0096
2,0001,0079
3,0001,0403

tmp1 (file 2)
0096,96
0079,175
0403,578

what I would like to do is to combine these two files together so that it look s like this.

File 3
1,0001,0096,96
2,0001,0079,175
3,0001,0403,578

I have tried the join command to do this but have not had any success.

Does any one know how to get this to work.

Any helpvery much appreciated
