SED or AWK to clean lines out of file1 based on values in file2

[WiccaChic]

Hello all. I have a big file that I need to delete a number of lines out of. I want to read the values that will determine deletion out of another file, because there are multiple.

Can someone post an example of a sed or awk script to do this?

And what about fgrep -v -f ?
What have you so far ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
