You can upload both the files in R, and then create a data frame with transcription ID, gene.length, and read.counts together. Use reshape2 and plyr for merging the files. Check this link Help with 2 list in R, comparing gene ID to get refined information from both
thank you for your reply. My case is a little bit different. The order of transcrip id for the two file is different. and one have around ~20000 id, another has ~30000id.
