Hi guys,Ive been learning SQL slowly and I need help for a projet I am doing.I currently would like to compare identical files in a 2 seperate folder. Not only would I like to compare if the files are the same name, but when they are I would like to compare the file contents.SO basically this is what I need to do:-Compare file names in folder A with files in folder B-If a match is found, compare file contents-If file contents are same, do nothing. If file contents are different, move file to folder C.Can anyone help me!! :OThanks guys!Gino |
