But going back to your original question: How to compare files.
I think there's a UNION or something I've seen where two files are compared
and will show you inserts, deletes modifications.
As far as from whom, when, where that's not part of that equation.

Is there a simple way to compare records in a file?
I need to find where a field changed and was wondering if there is a way
using SQL to identify changes?
I need to search several thousand records for where a field may have
changed.
I am harvesting the journals we have on all files.

Hoping I do not have to write code to achieve this.

TIA, Darryl Freinkel
