All right here is a rough way I would do this pulling it out of thin air
I would Split the words by space. So you end up with an “Array” of words. Then I would compare array[0] to arraynew[0] if the words are not the same I would prepend / post pend <b> </b> (if you are using HTML Email) then you would end up with two strings like this
Original: Hey this is an awesome comment
New : Hey this is <b>a</b> <b>really</b> <b>awesome</b> <b>comment</b>
Obviously this would just show you where the change began… but its something? IDK just pulled it out of thin air it may be hair brained…

In SQL…. doable. I've searched the Progress Ref Guide and Bing'd it and found nothing that jumped out at me.Â

Has anyone done something like this?

TIA!
