Hi Richard,
| My machine uses Office 2013 so I could not verify if that plug in worked or not |
The WordDocs.Compare extension should work fine for Office 2013, too.
| and the command line snippet still has the same issue of opening and closing without being able to see a result. |
The example I posted dumps the
fc output to the Additional Information panel in the test log. Here's an improved version that also dumps
fc errors like "file not found". Can you try it and see what Additional Info says?
strFile = ... ' Your strFile value
Dim oShell, oExec
Set oShell = Sys.OleObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = oShell.Exec("fc ""C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\" & strFile & _
".docx"" ""C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\" & strFile & "2.docx""")
Do While oExec.Status = 0
Delay 100
Loop
Select Case oExec.ExitCode
Case 0: Log.Checkpoint "The files are the same.", oExec.StdOut.ReadAll
Case 1: Log.Error "The files are different. See Additional Info.", oExec.StdOut.ReadAll
Case Else: Log.Error oExec.StdErr.ReadAll
End Select
| I'm assuming this means something is going wrong somewhere. |
Could file paths be wrong? What's the strFile value?
