To do this, microsoft provides in built tools, to make the comparison easier and accurate.

First, you should open one of the documents you want to compare.

Then, go to the tools menu and click on the option marked ‘track changes’.

In track changes, you will find an option called “compare documents”.

Now you will find a new window opening up.

Select the “original document” when you are prompted.

Then select the revised one whose changes are to be merged.

Select it, click ok.
