Which tool enables you to output the percentage of modification of a set of objects in this fashion : >> Cut ±-------------------------------------------------------------+ ! Table 18 Tenant ! ±-------------------------------------------------------------+ Object is Changed (29.09 % changed) — Before ---- OBJECT Table 18 Customer { OBJECT-PROPERTIES { — After ----- OBJECT Table 18 Tenant { OBJECT-PROPERTIES { --------------- — Before ---- { OBJECT-PROPERTIES { Date=07/28/98; Time=12:00:00 PM; Version List=W12.00; } << Cut

Does the words “Which tool” mean that you know that such a tool really exists? [:p] Anna
Anna yes it does exists, but I dont remember on which CD, folder, FOB name it was … If it was not included in a Navision CD, it must have been a Freeware I’ve downloaded somewhere … I’ve used it once, 2 years ago … I should remember to eat more fish, my brain is slowly dying [:D]
I think it is an older version of developer’s toolkit or upgrade toolkit, but I only heard about it. I would be very interested to have a copy…

WOW! I can’t direct your search in the right direction, but I’m starting proper voodoos to improve your luck in the quest! [:D] Anna
Hey the tool your a looking for is the compare tool. It is found at least on the 2.60 CD under NFCOMP\W1. Fred

Can someone upload it here so as those who are interested can have a copy ? Thanks…
so - what would you need it for??? even changing 1% of the code of the object could totally change its behaviour… Just exchange a TRUE by FALSE in CU 12… [:)]
You’re right even 0.5% of change could change the logic of your code However I think it’s sometimes useful, to have a % of modification to have a rough estimate of the time & effort required to merge the different modifications … (we roll out “group” functionalities in a dozen of subsidaries which uses Navision) On a less serious note : it’s useful tools for end users too : Have you ever wondered why you’ve been charged 2000 USD by your NSC or sub-contractor for 0.5% of code modified [:D]

well, also changing a TRUE to FALSE (to stick to that example) sometimes need couple of hours to analyze the effects and think about before doing the change… Generally speaking the less the code changes are, the better the programming… some just reinvent the wheel by developing functions that already exist in the standard instead of reusing the existing ones. So they would yield a high % changed but do not have brought the best solution to you…
