Sorry everyone somehow we had a rogue dis layer in the old folder. After a fresh copy of all the AOD files (Sys,Syp,Var) from the appl folder into the old folder then the differences went away Just a query but I thought if I just want to compare VAR to VAR then I only need the VAR.AOD in the old folder (i.e. no need for the other layer files) but this experience would seem to suggest other wise, maybe someone can help me understand a little better? Thanks and sorry for the false alarm James

Are they real differences? There is a setup tab on 'compare' form, try playing around with the values on this tab.

The VAR and old VAR are exactly the same Even I do individual compare of an object its shows a lot of difference Do I need to put the SYS and SYP also in the old folder? I dont think so right? I am trying on AX4.0 SP2 Thanks James
