I also found that it is important to NOT include Beyond Compare in extdiff section so it will use beyondcompare3 from the merge-tools section with diffargs arguments. (I have beyondcompare3 specified in both ui.merge and tortoisehg.vdiff)
- Make use of the ultra-handy right-click explorer file and folder context menus to compare stuff.
- The default comparison is file size plus date and time, which is super speedy but not always accurate. Use the little scales icon (or the Session Comparison Control menu) to switch the comparison type to Size and CRC.
- When viewing a file comparison, use the referee icon (or the Tools Edit Current Rules menu) to tweak the file comparison rules. I usually turn off all the options under "Unimportant Text" such as leading whitespace, case, line endings, etcetera.
I have two Excel (.xls) files that I'm comparing using Beyond Compare 3. When a record is different, it's messing up the alignment, and it doesn't fix itself for several records, so I'd like to manually realign the compare. According to their help, I right-click on a line and choose align. Except that align isn't on the right-click menu. Why?
It's even easier than that. All you have to do is close the original "Data Compare" window, select the two files to compare in the "Folder Compare" window (hold down the "Ctrl" key to multiselect), then right-click on your selection and select "Open WithText Compare".
Up until recently, when I compare a file in the latest commit on the currently active branch with an earlier commit on the same branch, the earlier commit file would show in source tree in a temp directory, such as C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Local\Temp\Mxm5Gc_requestHandler.cfc.
I'm trying to get this done without incorporating BC's shell into DOpus. I've looked through BC's command line switches but there doesn't seem to be one that forces the selected file to be shown in the right or left pane. There also doesn't seem to be a way to load a single file into BC, navigate to another directory to select a second file, and then execute a "compare to..." command (referring to the previously loaded file in BC).
If a file is selected this code compares a file with the same name in left and right listers. Is it possible to have a button that compares the folder path if nothing is selected, or the first item in each lister if a file is selected?
Remember. Take a look back over the titles of each post in this series. What depth this God has. He is not just our Comforter, not just in Control, but all these things and so much more too. He is beyond compare.
After a crash, I save an excel file with a new name. Then later on I used the old file with the original name and then the file saved with the new name, when I should have used only the newly named file. So there are entries missing or wrong in the newly named file. Is there a way to compare them other than side-by-side going line by line? I have over 2000 lines.
Here's a more detailed solution using a third-party tool called "Beyond Compare." Beyond Compare is a powerful file comparison tool that can be used to compare Excel files effectively. Please follow these steps:
@NikolinoDE THANK YOU!!!!!! You saved me more hours than you can imagine. I used the third party Beyond Compare program and it worked very well. I had a little trouble because both excel files also have multiple sheets and it took a while to get it to compare the same sheet in each file. Once I did, it was great.
I use it to compare changed pages against backup's when something goes horribly wrong as it speeds the debug process... I don't actually know if it has any kind of merge facility but if it did I wouldn't use it.
For Palestinians and their supporters, who have struggled for decades to advance their cause, only to suffer repeated setbacks, the impulse to compare can be overwhelming. Invoking a comparison with South African apartheid, as Arafat did before the UN, is a rhetorical device meant to make sense of enforced ethno-religious separation and mobilize action along the lines of the successful anti-apartheid movement. The comparison need not be exact. South Africa is not the benchmark against which all claims of apartheid must be measured; by the terms of the 1973 UN convention, apartheid is a crime wherever it occurs. Pinpointing differences between apartheid-era South Africa and Israel-Palestine need not render comparison an inappropriate method of inquiry. Indeed, one value of the comparative method that is often overlooked is that it throws important distinguishing characteristics into relief.
