To compare and merge page definitions in the Upgrade view:

2. Open the Pages window within the upgrade project.

3. Select the page(s) that you want to compare.

4. Right-click on the Pages window to display the context menu.

5. Select Diff / Merge Page, and then select one of these options:

   • From Database: select if you are comparing the current definitions with definitions in another database. After doing so, sign on to the appropriate database using the PeopleSoft Signon window.

   • From File: select if you are comparing the current definitions with definitions in a project file. After doing so, navigate to the appropriate file using the Merge from File: Select Project dialog box.
