The Open XML SDK 2.5 Productivity Tool does some amazing things for me, but it would be even better if there could be some way to automatically fill in the Browse Files to Compare dialog box, such as with the last files opened. I could probably add this highly useful feature if somebody knows where the source code is.
What I tried:
- Google search for: Open XML SDK Productivity Tool command line
- I used the Spy++ program that comes with Visual Studio. It only recognizes the dialog box, not the dialog box controls.
- I wrote a program to find the dialog using EnumWindows(). I can find the dialog and move the control focus by sending it tab characters, but EnumChildWindows() doesn't find the dialog controls, and sending keystrokes to the dialog doesn't fill in the dialog controls.

In both cases I was told to post somewhere else. It would be great to not get the runaround this time.
