Comparing Data Sets and Showing the Differences

ollicai
5 - Atom

Hi all, 

 

I have been having some trouble finding a simple way to compare two data sets and highlight any difference from File 1 to File 2. The column headers will always stay the same, however, the row values may differ and is thus what I need to highlight. Thank you in advance for the help!

 

Example:

 

File 1:

OriginPriceColor
New York12Yellow
Paris15Blue 
London17Green

 

 

File 2:

OriginPriceColor
New York12Yellow
Milan15Blue 
London17Green

 

The output file should somehow show the below difference below.

OriginPriceColor
New York12Yellow
Milan15Blue 
London17Green
