Thanks, Fernando. I pretty much have something similar going with SCCTEXTX and my diffing tool of choice. I'm sure your utils are a bit more elegant but I'm in get it done mode at the moment. : - )
What I was thinking of writing was a bit more menu specific using things like PRMPAD() and CNTPAD() etc. Dump stuff into arrays, parse them out and comp the results. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fernando D.

If you want to compare menus, then you can use FoxBin2Prg to convert them to Text (.MN2) and compare using a good tool like Meld, Beyond Compare, WinMerge or any other. With FoxBin2Prg there is a utility included called FB2P_DIFF.exe, which allows you to just run it and drag & drop your menus (MNX) to the input filename boxes to do a quick compare using WinMerge Portable (also included) without the need to setup anything else. Inside FB2P_DIFF.exe you can configure other DIFF utils (it have Beyond Compare v2 preconfigured too, in case you have it installed) You can download from VFPx: https://vfpx.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FoxBin2prg Try it and comment here about if was useful to you, Best Regards.- 2016-06-16 16:06 GMT+02:00 Richard Kaye <[email protected]>: > I have some similar menus and I'm looking for a way to tell which menu > options might be unique to one or the other so I can build a single > consolidated menu. > > I've already forged ahead by diffing MPR/MNAs.
