Boolean function that compares two files to see if they are identical
![Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic](https://www.fortypoundhead.com//assets/img/icons/v7/vb6.png)
This boolean function simply reads in two files and compares them to see if they are the same. It returns true if they are and false if they aren't. I quickly wrote this up to compare text files against template files.

Code
Public Function compare_files(fileOne As String, fileTwo As String) As Boolean
Dim fileOneContent As String
Dim fileTwoContent As String
Dim temp As String
Open fileOne For Input As #1
Do Until EOF(1)
Line Input #1, temp
fileOneContent = fileOneContent + temp
Loop
Close #1
Open fileTwo For Input As #1
Do Until EOF(1)
Line Input #1, temp
fileTwoContent = fileTwoContent + temp
Loop
Close #1
If fileOneContent = fileTwoContent Then
compare_files = True
Else
compare_files = False
End If
End Function
