Thanks for all the great suggestions. Well it's still going to be a big job, at least now I will be able to cut down on some of the steps.

We each have over 4000 names, so it would be a big job to do a split screen and go file by file. Now I know that I can do a merge, and then check for duplicates, but again that is a huge job. And unfortunately the numbering systems are difference too. What I hoping to be able to do is just get a list of names, events and sources that are different between to two data bases. Is there any way I can do this? Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
