three files on a character-by-character basis to detect differences. Any
suggestions appreciated.

Need to do it programattically since I have about 600 sets of files to
compare. Luckily, the files should be identical ... I am looking
on very large files,
but CF8 has phenomenal improvements in string manipulation and testing

Comparing a hash of
each file would surely reduce the amount of text CF had to throw around
especially if you are performing several tests with the same set of
files.
Apparently yes, but calculating the hash certainly takes more time than
comparing two strings,
and it needs to go through the

I'd be tempted to split the work buy doing a simple check at the start
on file sizes. If they are different then you _know_

Someone told me that there was a way to compare two files in Cold Fusion
Studio, but they did not tell me how. Can anyone tell me if this is
possible and if so how? I have looked at all of the docs and I can not find

What I am attempting to do is compare some changed files
