Hello,

I have multiple word documents with track changes in the repository. How do I combine these multiple word documents into a single one? Is it possible to use SDK activity to do this please? Thanks.

The SDK doesn't natively have any tools to manipulate Word documents. You'll have to use the OpenXML SDK from an SDK Script activity.

Or try using the Microsoft Office interop easier to handle.

using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
code sample with Office Interop

The Office interops assume you will be running Office in an interactive user session. Workflow runs as a service, so there's no user session to launch Office applications in.

Of course, you must detach the office files and call a program with a shell to do the requested processing and then reinject the result in the repository.
