Coparing trees in separate windows

JonestheSearch · Post by **JonestheSearch** » 01 Apr 2006 16:04

Is it possible to compare two separate trees ( or sets of records)in two separate Windows panes?
I would like to be able to view them side by side. At the moment I am hopping between the two by re opning the files each time and writting down any changes. Copy and Paste does not eem to work either.
I am trying to compare the records sent to me with my own.
I have tried to merge the two files but that wiped out information I had in favour of emptry boxes on the file that was sent to me.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Open two separate copies of FH, load one tree into each copy, then resize the windows so you can see both on the screen.
