Comparing Object in Current Repository to Object in Archive

You can compare an object in the current repository to an object in an archive.

To compare object in current repository to object in archive (Siebel Tools)

  1. In the Object Explorer, select an object type.

  2. In the Object List Editor, select one top-level object type.

  3. Click the Tools menu, click Compare Objects, and then click Selected vs. Archive.

  4. In the Select Archive File to Compare Against dialog box, select the archive file that includes the object you want to compare.

    An archive file is saved as a SIF file. For more information, see Overview of Archiving Objects.

  5. Click Open.

    The comparison starts at the project level. It does the following:

    • If it finds a corresponding object in the archive, then it displays the Compare Objects dialog box.

    • If it does not find a corresponding object in the archive, then it does nothing.

    For more information, see Elements of the Compare Objects Dialog Box.
