I sent a response by email, but I'll also post it here for anyone following this thread:

The load command only accepts two folders as arguments. You're passing it two filenames, that is why it is failing with an error.

If you change the load command to "load c:\folder1 c:\folder2", then it should work as long as those folders exist.

Chris, thank you very much for your support!

I resolvier error with your information.
Now the problem I face Is to get the answer from beyond compare %ERRORLEVEL%, used follow variable "int working" in the call of "CreateProcess" but it was not possible to receive value coherent.

Would you have a suggestion for this?

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

The %ErrorLevel% does not report comparison status when running as script. We have a wide array of error values, used in different scenarios, such as /quickcompare or @scripting.

/quickcompare would return values based on two files, and if they are equal or not
@scripting error levels only indicate if the script succeeded or failed. Script should generate a report.xml or other report type for generating an output.

Before incorporating into a larger script, please test manually from the command line using BComp.com to see if the values are generating as you expect.
