Open ms word in “compare document” mode from command prompt.
-
I am working on a web project where client needs a functionality to first upload some MS word document & then he can compare any two of the uploaded documents. The idea I came up with is to first make the documents available using WEBDAV & then open both documents using command line with "Compare side by side" option. In this way he will be able to compare & modify two documents. The problem is, I am not able to find any command which can be run from command prompt to open two documents in compare mode. Also, if you know any other way to achieve this functionality then please share it with me. Thanks!

I see no such option listed as a command line switch. :( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/210565[^] P.S. Perhaps something can be done with a macro?

Yes, did not find any thing helpful in command switch. Looking for other options I have. :)

Not knowing anything about comparing two documents... could you designate a directory for it, copy the two documents into it, and then open a document which contains an auto run macro that will open the documents in that directory in compare mode?
