Get the difference between 2 texts

[vbzero]

I want to read in 2 texts and then I want my program to check, which letter, sentense, whatever is different to the other text.
The difference should appear in a textbox.

thx, vbzero

hey, don't I know you from AOL vb rooms??

Anyways, this might work for you, maybe, maybe not:

NewText$ = Replace(CurrentText$, OldText$,"")

Basically it takes old text, and replaces any previous text with nothing.

If CurrentText$ = "This is a test. Testing 1 2 3."
and OldText$ = "This is a test.", then my "trick" would return " Testing 1 2 3."


Hope that helps.
