The signature of the compare method has changed from 2000 to the current compare
method.
What I'm guessing has happened, it that in Office 2000 a method called compare
was available which only took one parameter, String name.
function Compare(
Name : String
);
Then for 2002 a new compare method was release to allow users specify more about
how they wanted files compared. As part of this process, the old compare(String)
method was renamed to compare2000.
function Compare2000(
Name : String
);
function Compare(
Name : String,
AuthorName : Object,
CompareTarget : Object,
DetectFormatChanges : Object,
IgnoreAllComparisonWarnings : Object,
AddToRecentFiles : Object
);
Then, for Office 2003, a further overloading of the method occured. The old
(2002) compare function was renamed to compare2002.
JScript
(from
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.word._document.compare(VS.80).aspx)
function Compare2000(
Name : String
);
function Compare2002(
Name : String,
AuthorName : Object,
CompareTarget : Object,
DetectFormatChanges : Object,
IgnoreAllComparisonWarnings : Object,
AddToRecentFiles : Object
);
function Compare(
Name : String,
AuthorName : Object,
CompareTarget : Object,
DetectFormatChanges : Object,
IgnoreAllComparisonWarnings : Object,
AddToRecentFiles : Object,
RemovePersonalInformation : Object,
RemoveDateAndTime : Object
);
As all attributes other than name are optional this works fine for all existing
code. However, for new code that wants to take advantage of the new attributes,
they have to be aware of the Office version that is installed and only call the
method that is available.
I hope this makes sense. If you have a machine with Office 2000 installed you'll
see what I mean straight away.
