How to compare the content of two files so I can delete duplicate records

I'm trying to clean up several subfolders with duplicates without looking at the details of each record.  Is it possible in Windows XP to compare the content of two files whether they are an exact replica.

Hi rav42010,

  • Compare the content of two equal nested tables

    I'm working on a black box test where I compare the contents of two structurally equal tables before and after executing a script of some. My two tables, MDQ_OLD and MDQ_NEW, are filled with the data in two separate operations.

    The two tables, I'll compare are nested, as you can see in the CREATE TABLE scripts below.

    I tried to use the less-operator sign, but without success.

    I also tried to select data in a type that is % ROWTYPE to my nested tables, but it does not work as well (see the below script in this post).

    Can you please help me on this problem on how to compare the content of two nested tables?

    Run the scripts below to reproduce the problem and be sure to update this post if more information is required.

    -The scripts below-

    Select * from version of v$.

    -First of all, I create my types

    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE FORCE AS OBJECT MDQ_DETAIL (NUMBER OF MDQ_DETAIL_ID, MDQ_DETAIL_DESC VARCHAR2 (100));

    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_MDQ_DETAIL AS TABLE MDQ_DETAIL;

    -Note that this type contains the table T_MDQ_DETAIL type:

    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE MDQ_PARENT FORCE AS OBJECT (NUMBER MDQ_ID, MDQ_DETAILS T_MDQ_DETAIL);

    - Then I create two equal nested tables

    CREATE THE NESTED TABLE AS MDQ_PR_OLD STORE MDQ_DETAILS MDQ_PARENT MDQ_OLD TABLE.

    CREATE THE NESTED TABLE AS MDQ_PR_NEW STORE MDQ_DETAILS MDQ_PARENT MDQ_NEW TABLE.

    -Insert test data in the nested tables

    Insert into MDQ_OLD (MDQ_ID, MDQ_DETAILS) Values (1, T_MDQ_DETAIL (MDQ_DETAIL(1,'desc1')));

    Insert into MDQ_NEW (MDQ_ID, MDQ_DETAILS) Values (2, T_MDQ_DETAIL (MDQ_DETAIL(1,'desc1')));

    -Try to use the negative operator to compare the contents of the trailer of the nested tables, but it gives this error:

    -ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected - got DISPATCH. T_MDQ_DETAIL

    Select * from MDQ_NEW

    You asked how to compare the content of nested tables.

    I knew that you didn't ask for what you actually want, that's why I asked you to specify the comparison more in detail.

    In addition to comments of Bruce, likely OE compacted messages and in doing so, he probably wiped out the where they are absent.  Check your Inbox and message store bak files which are backups dbx files prior to compaction (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2).  If you cannot find the bak files, then you will probably use the extract of the service drive of my DBXpress program (see www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/).

  • How can I compare the differences between two files After Effects?

    I have a major problem.  I was working on special effects for a film.  In After Effects, when I change siggificant, I often have to register under and create a new name so I can go back to the old work if necessary.  It comes in a case, I have come back from earlier works.  If I use these two files After Effects allows you to create multiple clips of effects.  And I do not remember just where you look at it, it is better.  Does anyone know a good way to compare the differences between the files?

    One thing to keep this conversation on the right way: I know that I did a stupid thing.  I've never done this before so can we please not spend a lot of time on how to avoid this problem and stick to how we solve this problem?

    If you encounter difficulties to identify differences in the old and new versions, you can use this procedure:

    To avoid confusion, I'll call your former company and your most recent compositions CompB comps.

    CompA drag "New Comp" icon in the project window.  This will create a new temporary layout that contains the nested CompA.

    Drag in your new COMP CompB temporary ensure it aligns image for image with CompA.

    Place the top layer (CompB) difference.

    Now, when you play through the comp, you'll see differences in color at a time where the comparison and CompB are not identical.

  • Profile of files and records are too big - how to move the contents of other files/folders?

    I have a large Inbox and have moved all content in Thunderbird to a new folder I created under local folders. When I go on my windows file system and look in the profile folder, I found that the file/folder Inbox is always MASSIVE, even if I moved ALL the content in a completely new folder inside Thunderbird.

    Why is this? And how can I move all of my old emails to another folder inside Thunderbird as the original Watch windows file Explorer Inbox folder folder/now are low, with the new file/folder wholesale?

    Any help or advice appreciated...

  • How to compare the contents of the cell against a series list range of values?

    Hi all! I really need help.

    I have tried to help myself using the formula of numbers and other discussions Apple guide but do not find a method using the info. Unfortunately, in two days and no work done, I feel rather useless! I read the guides but I can't understand the syntax, or the use, if, AND, OR, etc..

    I have a list of about 800 alphanumeric codes. There are about 80 I want to "stand out". About 30 of them I can isolate content in the adjacent cell, but the other 50 are repeats of the first 30 but are without cells adjacent "filterable" so I can't isolate easily. I thought that I could create a formula that would give rise to 'TRUE' IF (-none of the 30 listed alphanumeric codes appear in column A). Something like:

    = IF (A2 = (AFS4572 OR HFU9372 OR UWK1993 OR EPD5490), "TRUE", "FALSE")

    or written more readable

    = IF (A2 = (AFS4572, HFU9372, UWK1993, EPD5490), 'TRUE', 'FALSE')

    Can someone help me with a formula?

    Or at least some information on:

    (a) how to think straight

    (b) recommend a reasonable way to learn the syntax of the formula numbers?

    Hello

    COUNTIF() would be your friend as shown in column B in the following example. Column C shows how to use the OR() function if you have a particular reason to select.

    For example,.

    Table 1 (excerpt)
    
    A1  code
    A2  HFU9372
    A3  EPD5490
    A4  AFS4572
       
    B1 
    B2  =COUNTIF(CODES::A,A2)>0
    B3  =COUNTIF(CODES::A,A3)>0
    B4  =COUNTIF(CODES::A,A4)>0
       
    C1 
    C2  =OR(A2="AFS4572",A2="HFU9372",A2="UWK1993",A2="EPD5490")
    C3  =OR(A3="AFS4572",A3="HFU9372",A3="UWK1993",A3="EPD5490")
    C4  =OR(A4="AFS4572",A4="HFU9372",A4="UWK1993",A4="EPD5490")

  • How to clear the contents of a file

    Hello

    I have a file that includes some characters written in it, I want to delete the file, how can I do this?

    Say that I called "LabVIEW" Word, I need to erase this word and end result should be the empty file.

    I need to replace the content by writing "OR" in the file, but when I do this I still find other characters of the word of LabVIEW.

    Thanks in advance

    There is a difference between your method and mine. My method will move the EOF marker so that it gets placed after all what I have written in the file, which in this case is the empty string. With your method the EOF marker is not moved. To perform the equivalent operation with your code, you will need to use the right to set file size after the write function to set the file size to the length of the string that you wrote in the file. Or, you can use the unique feature that I did.

  • Is it possible to compare the contents of two folders

    Someone copied one of our folders with subfolders on the server from one place to the other. Now, some people use the old location and the new location. Is it possible to compare the two, to find the difference and merge them into a file without losing any information?

    There are third party tools that can automate a large part of it, but you still need to judge what part gets merged from which file.  One of those tools that I know is "Beyond Compare"

  • How to compare the value of two combo

    I have two Combo Box (cbFirst & cbSecond). I want to compare the value that has been selected by the user and according to the result, the output is displayed. In the two combo box, I have provided the value.

    Here is my code:

    var a: number;

    function First(evt:Event):void {}
    a = evt.target.value;

    trace ("more")

    on the other

    trace (b is higher);

    Trace the statement inside the functions work very well and the value correct a & b is printed. But the comparison in the if statement does not seem to work. Could you please help me.
