How do I compare 2 text files?

Might be helpful to you.

Code:

Public Function CompareFiles (FilePath1, FilePath2)
Dim FS, File1, File2
Set FS = CreateObject(“Scripting.FileSystemObject”)

If FS.GetFile(FilePath1).Size <> FS.GetFile(FilePath2).Size Then
CompareFiles = True
Exit Function
End If
Set File1 = FS.GetFile(FilePath1).OpenAsTextStream(1, 0)
Set File2 = FS.GetFile(FilePath2).OpenAsTextStream(1, 0)

CompareFiles = False
Do While File1.AtEndOfStream = False
Str1 = File1.Read(1000)
Str2 = File2.Read(1000)

CompareFiles = StrComp(Str1, Str2, 0)

If CompareFiles <> 0 Then
CompareFiles = True
Exit Do
End If
Loop

File1.Close()
File2.Close()
End Function
