Vista - Compare files and get the differential

I've 2 text files.

Eg file1.txt
pc001
pc002
...etc

File2.txt
pc001
pc002
pc003
...etc

Extract only the differences eg pc003 and output to another file.

Is there a compare function in .net ?

Hi,
just small ping (haven't time now to test it whole):

$a = "pc001","pc002"
$b = "pc001","pc002","pc003"
Compare-Object $a $b

Output:

InputObject SideIndicator
----------- -------------
pc003 =>

I am sure you can pipe it to the file.

$nett = compare-object $(get-content $pclist) $(get-content $exclusion) |
select inputobject

i would like to follow up with the next statement like eg

foreach {$computers in $nett}
etc etc


How do i convert $nett into a array so that i can read it like a get-content
textfile ?
