Some of the tables involved do NOT have a timestamp field on them.
Are you wanting to compare the contents on a record by record basis,
or just "are they different"?
You said they are small, so how about FILETOSTR such as:
f1 = filetostr(theLocalFile)
f2 = filetostr(theNetworkFile)
if f1 <> f2
....
etc
Seems like a hash of some sort would be the way to go versus filetostr()
but perhaps not. OTOH, why not just compare the file's datetime stamp?
If difference found though, I could just copy the file down (again).
For the large files, I control them with timestamp fields, so I guess
for those I would simply say "grab everything beyond the MAX(LocalDBF)
key value...since these records are just added to the pile and not edited.
Hmmm...it's good to talk it out here! ;-)
