Call Beyond Compare in Visual Basic.

Question

I need to compare many files from child server to main server. I'm not sure if Beyond Compare can support me to call and use it via Visual Basic. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Yes. It is possible to use Beyond Compare on a Visual Basic application, but only by call it through CMD, which you need to open in the application also. This can be done with a command like Process.Start("CMD", " BCompare.exe"). However, you should use the program standalone, because it has functions that can facilitate the comparison of multiple items.
