Blog TOC(Oct 27, 2008 - The Open XML SDK development team has built an Open XML Diff program that's very nice - find out about it here.)

This program has all of the options I want or need: can select which types of changes to see, control type of output, and more.

If you are a developer who works with Open XML, read his post, and download his utility. Nice job, Pranav!
