As a new user, I didn't want to spam the forum. I hope it's OK to bundle several questions.
I have a script that outputs CSV files, and I'm trying to compare output from a previous version to the latest version. I'm using BC 4.0.7 on Windows.
(1) I made a change that added a few rows. In BC4, in CSV files it doesn't match one line with a later one like in a normal text file. In a normal text file in BC, I'd use F7 / Align With ..., but that isn't available. Is there some way to do it? (Other than deleting the putative added rows, saving, and redoing the comparison.) Can I request it?
(2) It seems to be sorting by the primary key, by default the first column. Is it possible to sort by row number? (Other than by changing the output by putting the row number in coumn 1.)
(3) I mentioned above how it doesn't seem to have the same operations with CSV files as text files. Is there a way to, just one time, do the comparison as text files? (I hesitate to muck around with Tools - File Formats for fear that I'll somehow lose the CSV file functionality.)
