Hi Nav masters,
I'm currently working with more then one tech. I just want to know how is the correct way to merge objects using Devtoolkit?
Could someone guide me with the correct way?
Because now i just compare the 2 objects manually by opening 2 DB, SQL and native. I put the Main DB in SQL and copy one codes at a time from Native to SQL. I took me lots of time. And I'm afraid i will miss something when comparing and joining the objects.
Thanks in advance.

Just want to make sure we have the same thought.
So, you mean export out per objects from both DB as txt file and compare them using text compare program? Then copy the codes from New object into Target object and then save and import into target DB, is that right?
And for Form object, i still need to compare the design view to make sure its correct, right?
Thanks

Steven
For forms, I it's a little harder to see and understand the changes. So I compare them by looking at the two forms and identifying the changes.
When I compare txt forms, I only look for code changes, the rest I make manually.

I don't like comparing forms in two NAV databases at the same time, it doesn't catch everything. For me, using text compare for forms is by far the easiest and fastest way to merge forms. It just takes practice.
Also if you merge the controls on the form with a text compare tool, it will use the same control ID's, and will make it less likely that you're going to have conflicts later.
