Comparing Files in SPSS

[R C Intrieri]

I am trying to compare a series of files that have been updated but we do not know how they have
been updated.  Is there an efficient manner to compare these files in SPSS.
Thanks

The most efficient way I know of is using Data Entry Builder, a module
that is usually a part of the SPSS main license. Do you have access to
it? If yes, I can send you simple directions on how to compare files.
