  <p>How can you get the diff of two word .doc documents programatically?
  Where you can then take the resulting output and generate an html file of the result. (As you would expect to see in a normal gui diff tool)</p>
  
  <p>I imagine if you grabed the docs via COM and converted the output to text you could provide <em>some</em> diff funcitonality.  Thoughts?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to do this without windows and COM?</p>
  
  <p>(Perferably in python, but I'm open to other solutions)</p>
