File Compare between MD5 hash and Regular File

[TOI DAY]

Hi All,

This is what I want to do.
Support I have two file name abc.txt, xyz.txt
I did created md5 hash for abc.txt and store it some directory

Here is how I create md5 for the abc.txt

FileStream file1 = new FileStream(abc. txt, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read );
MD5CryptoServic eProvider md5 = new MD5CryptoServic eProvider();
md5.ComputeHash (file1);

byte[] hash = md5.Hash;
StringBuilder buff = new StringBuilder() ;
foreach (byte hashByte in hash)
{
buff.Append(Str ing.Format("{0: X1}", hashByte));
}

Now I want to open the abc.txt file and do the binary compare with xyz.txt file.
Would someone show me how can I do it.

Thanks in advance

What does the MD5 hash have to do with the binary compare?

You got an answer about binary compares in this thread:

Was it not good enough?
