Before you begin, you must complete Exercise 3.12: Comparing file differences from the Remote Systems view.
The CODE tool provides a side-by-side view of the members being compared. If you prefer this type of view follow the steps described next. You might want to skip this section if the Compare Tool you just used provides sufficient information for you. Now you will open a couple of files and edit them and use the CODE compare utility.
To compare files in the CODE Editor:
This opens the CODE Editor window with the member. It will open in browse mode since it is locked by the LPEX Editor session.
The Select file - Open for Edit dialog opens.
The Compare dialog opens:
All entries are preloaded.
The editor now has the PAYROLLC2 member loaded on the left and member
PAYROLLC loaded on the right. In between the two members are two long
vertical blue lines with horizontal yellow and red bars highlighting the
differences in these members.
As you scroll, you will see where the differences are in the members.
The CODE Editor window re-opens.
Close the CODE Editor.
You have compared files using the CODE Editor and now you are ready to begin Exercise 3.14: Checking syntax.
