The regex features in RDP are reasonably good. What kind of regex statement requires you to move source outside of RDP? I can't work out inserting newlines, but everything else seems to work as you'd expect.
Incidentally, you mentioned moving to Rational Team Concert in one of your recent posts. I'd be very interested to hear about your experiences with installing and using RTC with RDP (and iProjects) as we are also considering it but the move to iProjects is putting me off researching too much further. Do you have a blog or something to write that kind of report up on?

:-) I hear you - the eclipse compare is very nice for regular text
files, although I still use TextPad for that - I have not seen a side-by-side compare in Textpad, but it does show diffs. I'm sure things like Notepad II or whatever the name are similar.
Trouble with comparing source -without SourceLanding's tool - is just what was described here - source dates are involved. This uses the Eclipse compare, I believe.
Now there is another compare tool - it is under the Edit menu - I just went looking, because I thought it was there. I think it's like the old CODE compare tool - it might be the LPEX editor tool - the one that the setting to ignore sequence numbers might relate to.
The latter tool is not accessible from a right-click on the member name, so far as I can see - I had to go to the Edit menu - there may be a shortcut, I don't know after a quick look-see.
But take a look at this one - it shows the changes intermingled in pink (red)and yellow highlighting.
BTW, I use Textpad for Search/Replace - I copy a block of source there, then use the really powerful regex functionality there, then copy the block back in to the LPEX editor.

Copy them to your PC? That sounds strange to me because I frequently copy PC files to a NetServer share so I can easily compare them using WDSc7.--

You might be better of copying the source to text files on your PC,
then compare in something like TextPad or one of the other ASCII editors.

greater than 32K records, so the SEU options don't work. I setup
two filters, so that I can easily click on both members, and then
right-click and say compare with each other. Every line in the
source is registered as a change, and I suspect its because of the
sequence/dates. I've checked preferences under Lpex/Compare and
Ignore Sequence #'s is checked. I tried restricting the columns to 13 through 80, and the results are the same.
Does anyone have any luck using the RDP compare function? While I'm
at it, I wouldn't mind a merge function similar to the PDM merge,
that would work
with>32K record source members.
