ok, took me ages to get the code right and I am not sure what the largest numbers you can enter are and also how long it will take to calculate them! :)

I won't post the code as it is something I think you need to try working out yourself so I will post a rough idea of how I have it set up

(there may be a better way of doing this so others may post better sugestions)

1. Set up 2x collections with all the numbers 

2. check which collection contains the most numbers

3. check if the value for each item in that collection is present in the second collection starting with the lowest number which should be the last entry in the collection.

4. once I found the item with the lowest value that was present in each collection I set the value of the 3rd textbox to that
