string differences libraries

[Jeroen]

We have update operations on strings, where we know the "New" and "Old"
version of the string. A html report will be generated about many of
these changes. I would like to mark these changes with colors.

Are there any .NET classes already available for this kind of string
comparison? We're working with studio 2003.

Just version comparison, take a look of Visual Source Safe.

Sorry, perhaps I didn't explain well enough. I mean I want to create
some code that can highlight string differences, something like:

string text1 = "this looks like the one below";
string text2 = "This looks a lot like the one above";
System.YYY.StringDifference[] differences = System.YYY.Compare(text1,
text2);
