reportgen_html.seq and differ woes

[PhillipBrooks]

I'm trying to use the TestStand differ tool to merge changes from our previous reportgen_html.seq file into the lastest 4.1.1 reportgen_html.seq file.

The differ tool keeps finding differences in the AditionalResults Input and Output Flags for various steps. The only difference seems to be that the old file contains a hex notation with a value of 0x2000 and the new file uses decimal notationwith a value of 8192 (same value).

Is there some way to quickly fix or change one file or the other to match the other so that I can use the differ tool to find the 'true' differences?

Hello Phillip,

Are you simply asking if there is a way to mask/ignore these data representation entries from the diff tool so that you can better see the other entries that represent more substantial differences?  If so, have you tried manually changing the representation of whatever value is being identified?  Thanks in advance for this information!
