Ignore Column Order in a CSV file

[jennimar]

Hi,
When comparing CSV files, I would like to ignore the column order in the files. Is there a way to do this type of compare using Beyond Compare?
Thanks a lot,
Jenni

Hello,

When you say "ignore column order", do you mean that the column headers in one file are in a different order in the other file? Col1,2,3 vs. Col2,1,3 ?

You can rearrage column headers in the Data Compare's Session Settings -> Columns tab. You can then save the Data Compare as a session for future use, update the session defaults, or if it is a child session of a Folder Compare, update only that saved Folder Compare session.

Is this the behavior you are looking for?
