compare two text files

Dear all,


What software can compare two text files? They are contains about 100k data generated from Visual Basic 6.0 program and MS SQL 2000. I have many files to compare daily. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks.

I think VSS (source safe) is suitable for that|||

thanks Eisa. it is helpful.

Could you suggest some freewares?

|||Hi Alex,
I don't know if it is allowed to share free software here or not, howere you can serach google for compare text files free|||Thank your for your help|||Windows has a command line utility (fc) that compares two files. Type "fc /?" at a command prompt, and it will list the options/switches. It's a good solution if it has the features you need, because it's built into Windows, and you won't have to bother installing it everywhere you need it. If you want to use it in a job, you can invoke it with an operating system type step, or use xp_cmdshell if you need to call it after dynamically building the command at run-time. In a job, you would have to pipe the results to another text file, for review.|||

CompareIt! - cool
