Default Invoking compare and merge from the command line

I'm using Microsoft Word documents with a revision control system
(Mercurial). And I want MS Word to handle the merge and comparison when there
are conflicts. The only way for the tool to handle external programs is to
invoke them via command line (that means, no dde). Is there a way to invoke
Compare and Merge in word via command line switches? I can't see it in the
documentation.

If that doesn't really exist, I 'm thinking of two possible solutions:
1) Make a macro which does the invoking.
2) Make a program which invokes the compare and merge via COM.

Any suggestions on what I should do?
