Use VBScript to compare files -

I want to write a routine that will take two files (be they text or binary) and compare them to see if they are identical. I'd rather do that, than open the files and compare them line by line.

Is there a way to calculate a hash value for a file using VBscript? Are there any examples running around?

Thanks
