Use the compare function
to compare a selected object to another archive or object.
Perform the following
steps:
-
Right-click the first
archive that you want to compare. For example, you can select the
Extract5 archive.
-
Navigate through the
folder hierarchy in the
Package Contents pane
until you see the root object for the archive that you just selected.
Then, select the object (the Extract county data job in this case).
-
Click the
Compare To button, which enables you compare two objects
that share the same metadata ID.
-
Add the path to the
second object in the comparison to the
Compare To window. For example, you can enter the
Extract4 archive in the
Other archive field. (The
Browse button enables you to select from a list of all
of the archives associated with the Extract county data job).
-
Click
OK to create and review the comparison.
The comparison is shown
in the following display:
