Hello Paul,

We have a Perl tool for comparing databases. It consists of a script DbCompare.pl and a Parser.pm Perl module for parsing dbd files.

You can download them from

We're converting our (~200) databases from gdct to vdct.  After we drag around the records in vdct to visually arrange the linked records, we want to perform a final check to compare the original and the vdct records. We plan to write a text processing program/script to do this,  but...

Has anyone made a tool to compare the records and their fields in two database files?  Is there a utility (in the IOC) to dump a database report that we can compare (before/after)?  Does the old dbreport extension provide reports that list a record's field information that we can compare?


We're doing this because gdct doesn't run on Linux (right?).

Thanks,
-ps
