Re: Comparing two structures...

Many thanks to: Miyako, Tom, Wane, Dani & Randy! I do need to see the methods…. The V17r3 method is the most comprehensive, so my plan is to adopt that approach. Thanks for your thoughtful responses, Robert > On Feb 27, 2019, at 10:18 AM, Randy Jaynes > wrote: >

Re: Comparing two structures...

I would open copies of the 2 structures in v17R3 and use the export function from that so you get all the form objects and everything. Then a diff tool (I use DeltaWalker) can compare everything for you. Randy -- Randy Jaynes S
