Nadya,

>Where is WinDiff? or any program of this sort? Do we have it as part of OS? (Windows XP)

XP provides FC (file compare) utility. Its weak, but may give you enough info to get started.

Professional file compare utils:

File Comparison Tools (Diff, WinDiff, etc)

BeyondCompare has gotten great reviews - its $30 to buy and there's a free eval version if you want to try before you buy

Finally, I would pack both tables before comparing. You might also want to sort these tables somehow (using backup versions) so that the file compare feedback is more meaningful.

Your idea of a quick and dirty VFP utility to compare class library sounds like another way to go.
