I have two notepads and each notepad contains some data. Let’s say Notepad 1 and Notepad 2

Notepad 1 contains: A, B, C

Notepad 2 contains: C, D, E

I want to ask that how can i find data in Notepad 2 that contains notepad 1 data. Here answer is C. But i have lots of data in notepad 1 and notepad2. It is not possible to take individual data from notepad 1 and to press Ctrl+F in notepad 2 to find data. Is there any suitable method for this? Will it be possible by converting these notepads into html pages?

    Probably you’d like to have a look on diff/merge tools. WinMerge is a free one. Another good option is Araxis Merge, it is commercial. Also you can just use Notepad++ editor with its Compare plugin. These tools are GUI based and can help you if you want to see and edit difference.

    If you need to extract and somehow automatically process difference, you more likely will have to use some console tools and scripting. *nix diff command can be used to extract difference and there are a lot of scripting languages suitable for text processing: sed, AWK, Perl, Python for instance.
