Workbook Compare utility
 

Hi Excel newsgroup peers:

I've been away for a while, busy working on a utility which is complete and
is downloadable on my website.

The utility, which I originally wrote for my consulting work, is an Excel
data comparison tool called (simply enough) Workbook Compare.

There is a free version which I published early last year available. There
is also a shareware version with more extensive features. Basically, the
idea is that you can extend an Excel solution, add new columns, move columns
around, optimize formulas, insert headers/shift data tables down, and then
compare that to the last production version to validate that the new version
produces the same numbers. The utility automatically "maps" the workbooks
being compared, making comparisons very easy. It spits out an Excel report
of the differences with extensive metadata to provide a deep context of the
differences.

If anyone would like to try the free version, feel free to download it and
any feedback you have is much appreciated. The shareware version has more
extensive features such as unique key indexing, highlighting of differences,
as well as many other helpful features for those of us who "live in Excel"
and need to validate their work.

Thanks

Tim Zych
