16340 Data Compare multiple column sort

[chrisjj]

In the Session menu -> Session Settings, Columns, is Unsorted Alignment enabled or disabled?

Unchecked.

But Aaron, Now I see there's some source data discrepancy behind this and inspecting the BC screenshot shows it is giving a correct result. So, false alarm - sorry to bother you.

PS For anyone else using multiple key sort: re Help's "By default, the files are sorted by their keys before the rows are aligned." I discover that the files are sorted by their keys in order left to right, so the sort order may be changed by changing the column order.

If you are still having trouble, please email us at [email protected] with a pair of sample files, your current BCSupport.zip, and a new screenshot if they are different files from this screenshot. There might be a difference in whitespace or something subtle.

but instead I get sort only on the first:



What's up?
