Thanks for all the film advice, folks. Carry on is cleary the way to go.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Okay, I would like recommendations on programs for the PC that will compare 2 documents and tell me if they are the same.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What for? Word can compare two docs. However, for programming I use Araxis Merge.

I have word docs, pdfs, excel files, you get the idea...

You can use fc /b to do a binary compare between two files.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A binary compare on a PDF doesn't sound very useful.
But I'm not sure how approachable a comparison of PDFs is anyway, since they're hybrid type docs.

All is well that ends in pizza.
There are a couple which rate pretty high at C|net's downloads.com site.
Beyond Compare 2.3.1 build 231
ExamDiff 1.6m, which has a paid Pro version, too.
and there's one whose user ratings are high, but it has not yet been reviewed, Compare It! 3.04
But i have yet to try these. Perhaps the names will jog some memories, or at least give you some to try.

I agree. It might be helpful only as a very basic way to verify if they are the same or altered, but not what has changed.
