Use SVN or also you can create .prj folder and then compare the XML files using Comparision tools.

Hi Raja,

You can use a software called "Compare it", is a freeware. This software compares two plain text files and show you de difference at each line, is a very good alternative. So it allow you to compare script section or macros section if you copy the entry text and create txt files (to copy all tabs, you can use the step by step section to view the complete script in a only tab).

To compare object expressions, you can export theses from Ctrl+Alt+E (Expression Preview). Then you get files with a list of all your expressions.

These are alternatives if you not have a SVN development methodology, but SVN can facility this work.

I hope to be helpful.

Regards

The -prj folder will create XML files for each object. you can compare those with any comparison tool. Trying creating -prj folder of your QVW application, but be careful while merging any change.

Thanks,
