We have written a tool that uses the CVTMSGF command in TAATOOL which converts the message files into a datbase and we then use it do the comparison. I have also looked into using the QMHRTVM API in a loop using the retreive option to retreive the *FIRST and *NEXT message id from one file and use the same API to retrive the same message id from the other message file and compare, but since we already have a methodology in place, we did not rewrite this.
