do the following.
Open the first document in LibreOffice Writer.
When it is open, go to the menu above the document.
Click Edit
On the pull-down menu, click Compare Document ...
A file open dialog will appear.

Yes, that's my idea.
Seems sensible to me, yet the computer just doesn't seem to like my
idea ;-)
the computer seems to have another idea - well, I guess it gets
back at me for referring to it as a 'glorified typewriter' ;-)

LO almost 2 years ago.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the insight on the behavior of a Base form. In your reply you
suggested that I put in a request for enhancement after checking to see if
the same behavior occurred with LO 3.6. It behaves the same way. I have no

Hi. I can see 2 other interpretations from Anne-ology message.
1. She wants to be able to open the file twice, to visually compare the
instance initially (and still) on disc with the instance edited in ram.
2. She wants to be able to visually compare 2 parts (paragraphs) in the
same document.
"do not use both LO and AOO on the same system."
Why not?

I prefer to keep the folders for package separate, just in case there is
a problem with one and I would have the other to use.
I just make sure I backup all the major "dot" folders on my Linux
systems every few days and not worry about the others except monthly.

Tom,
I absolutely agree. It never occurred to me to use the Paths function to point
both programs to the same template folder. It’s a great idea.
I was only concerned about corruption as I’ve seen that issue come up so many
times on both LO and AOO user lists, although I’ve never had the proble
Hi :)
It might be easier to keep track of your back-ups if you are only backing up 1
folder rather than 2.

Tom,
Thanks for the tip.

OK Had a chance to test going backwards and yes the problem exists in the older
