Hi Lee,
this may work for you if you are happy sharing the whole line containing
the difference and the two documents are mostly the same.
1. Make a copy of each file and remove any obvious unimportant difference
between them. (Particularly line breaks)
2. Ensure the lines within each document are unique – prefix each line of
both documents with a number
Text > Add/Remove Line Numbers…
✓Insert – with other settings to your taste.
3. Copy and paste the contents of the first document into the end of the
second.
4. Remove duplicate lines:
Text > Process Duplicate lines
✓Matching All and ✓Delete duplicate lines
5. Sort lines to unite the different lines
Text > Sort Lines…
Hope that helps
Cheers
Ollie
