Friends,
I'm in the process of evaluating a good utility to compare .dsx just to get an idea of what has been changed etc. So far from the board, I have heard of [1]UltraCompare...which does a decent comparision between dsx though it give the DS internals associated with the changes in a job [2]Unix command diff which I haven't given it a shot.

I'm about to look at Beyond Compare from Scooter Software and just want to hear from you guys on this if you have done any study on this. [there's a thread in server Edition on this, where I have posted too]

Also can someone confirm if MetaStage DOES have the Job Comparison and if so, how useful it is.

Thanks a ton.
Vijay

Haven't you already posted the same questionin Server Forum? There is no need to post the same question twice.

Any comparsion tool is going to do the exact same thing unless it is 'DataStage aware' like the process built into Version 8. So to me this would be more of a personal preference choice than anything.
