Hi ,
I have two columns of numbers A and B. A is 9 digits and B is 8 digits. How can I find the row in B that matches A(i) in a loop (i=1:length(A))

I would recommend not using a loop. If you have stored the number in a number format, just divide the A by 10 and floor it to convert to 8 digits. If you have it as a string, just remove the last character.
Then you can use ismember to do the work. ismember can be slow, so looking for alternative methods can be worthwhile if that is the bottleneck in your code.

[tf, Bidx] = ismember(fix(A/10), B);
Now, tf(K) tells you whether A(K) had a match in B or not, and if tf(K) is true then Bidx(K) tells you which entry in B matched.
