Difference on Labels

[vtpsu99]

Hi,

When doing a Diff between two labels, it shows it in a window for folder differences where you can filter on different or right only for example.

Is it possible to drop that list out to a file such as excel or csv? This is helpful to create a list to give to others in company to quickly review all changes made.

thanks,

J.R.

There isn't a way to do this when diffing a folder or label in Vault.

However, you could GET each label or folder to disk, then use the SourceGear DiffMerge tool in the Vault GUI Client directory to diff the folders on disk. The results can be saved as a .csv file. This menu item is in SGDM under the File->Save as . . .

Hi,

Thanks for the quick feedback.

When I try to File on the DiffMerge the Save and Save As options are grayed out. Do you know why that may be the case?

thanks,

Could you post a screenshot of your diff?

Actually, I wanted to see your diff options -- what are you diffing?

The Save As option is only available if you are diffing two different folder on disk. It doesn't work if you're diffing labels or folder that are in the Vault repository.

Hi,

I did a Get on two different labels and pulled them back to their own folders with different names as shown in the screenshot.

thanks,

What version of DiffMerge are you using? It looks like a different one than I have, which shipped with Vault 6.0.

Look under Help->About.

I tried an earlier version, and the Save As is not available.

You could try our stand-alone DiffMerge tool, which does have the Save As feature:

It looks like it was because we have an earlier version. I will try the stand-alone version of the tool.

Thanks,

Yes, that would be the best solution until you upgrade Vault.
