Is there any flag that gets turned on somewhere that tells you a record has been modified without having to go through each field checking the Field vs xRec.Field ?

    If you modify a record, the OnModify-trigger on the record is being called.
    Except when a change through code is being made without using MODIFY(TRUE);
    If you want to keep track on changes on certain field, then you could use change log entries.

    Format should do it. 
    item.get('CNKOR000003');

item2.get('CNKOR000003');

if format(Item2) = format(Item) then
  message('they are the same')
else
  message('they are different');

    Good tip! =D>
    I saw this once used for importing a file. Can be very handy.
