I was thinking from the title that knowing the exact difference
between two strings could help him find the source of the problem.
The Levenstein algorithm does this.  I thought it could be useful and
I had a library handy with the source in it.

Actually, I have to wonder if you read mine:   IT MAY GIVE YOU SOME
IDEAS.   I don't get down the that level very often so I really did
think that code might help him.
