How to compare two Documents using vb.net

[seshu]

Hi Everybody
I have a piece of code to compare two documents using vb.net but the problem here is it is comparing the whloe sentence but not word by word how to compare word by word

The code i wrote is like this

Dim objword As Word.Application
        objword = CreateObject("Word.Application")
        With objword
            .Documents.Open("C:\Seshu is a bad boy.doc")
            .ActiveDocument.Compare("C:\Seshu is a good boy.doc")
            .ActiveDocument.SaveAs("C:\Seshu is a good11111 boy.doc")
            .ActiveDocument.Close()
        End With

Someone Please Help Me

I got this piece of code some where and I think it should work fine with your issue
private bool FileCompare(string file1, string file2)
{
int file1byte;
int file2byte;
FileStream fs1;
FileStream fs2;

// Determine if the same file was referenced two times.
if (file1 == file2)
{
// Return true to indicate that the files are the same.
return true;
}

// Open the two files.
fs1 = new FileStream(file1, FileMode.Open);
fs2 = new FileStream(file2, FileMode.Open);

// Check the file sizes. If they are not the same, the files
// are not the same.
if (fs1.Length != fs2.Length)
{
// Close the file
fs1.Close();
fs2.Close();

// Return false to indicate files are different
return false;
}

// Read and compare a byte from each file until either a
// non-matching set of bytes is found or until the end of
// file1 is reached.
do
{
// Read one byte from each file.
file1byte = fs1.ReadByte();
file2byte = fs2.ReadByte();
}
while ((file1byte == file2byte) && (file1byte != -1));

// Close the files.
fs1.Close();
fs2.Close();

// Return the success of the comparison. "file1byte" is
// equal to "file2byte" at this point only if the files are
// the same.
return ((file1byte - file2byte) == 0);
}


cheers.

I dont know this C# or some other code more over i have a small doubt where is it saving the file which it is comparing
i mean at the end of the day i want three files
1-main file
2-file to be compared
3-file after comparision with first file but saved with different name and all the comparisions highlighted


Thank You
