File Compare Utility
The File Comparison Utility allows you to compare two AXS (Source), AXI (Include) or AXB (Block) files, and quickly
identify any differences between the two (FIG. 278).
To use the File Compare Utility:
1. Select Tools > File Compare Utility to open the File Compare Utility dialog.
2. In the File #1 to Compare text box, enter the file path and name of the file that you want to compare the other file
against.
3. In the File #2 to Compare text box, enter the file path and name of the file that you want to compare against File #1.
4. Set the Compare Options as desired:
Case Sensitive: Select this option to include changes in case in the file compare operation. By default this
option is disabled, so differences in case will be ignored.
Ignore White Spaces: Select this option to ignore differences in white spaces in the files. By default this
option is enabled, so differences in white spaces will be ignored.
5. Click Compare to begin the compare operation on the two selected files, using the Compare Options specified.
This action invokes the File Compare dialog (FIG. 279).
To cancel a Find in Files search, click Stop Find In Files (in the Tools menu).
