Load password-protected documents Leave feedback

GroupDocs.Comparison allows you to compare documents that are protected with a password.

To compare password-protected documents, follow these steps:

1. Instantiate the LoadOptions object. Specify source document password;
2. Instantiate the Comparer object. Specify the source document path or stream and LoadOptions object created in the previous step.
3. Instantiate another LoadOptions object. Specify target document password.
4. Call the Add method. Specify the target document path or stream and the LoadOptions object created in the previous step.
5. Call the Comparer method.

The following code snippet shows how to compare password protected documents:

using GroupDocs.Comparison;
using GroupDocs.Comparison.Options;
// ...

LoadOptions sourceLoadOptions = new LoadOptions(){ Password = "1234" };

using (Comparer comparer = new Comparer("source.docx", sourceLoadOptions))
{
    LoadOptions targetLoadOptions =	new LoadOptions() { Password = "5678" };
    comparer.Add("target.docx", targetLoadOptions);
    comparer.Compare("result.docx");
}
