Description evdm 2005-10-23 17:51:20 UTC 
Hello writer developers,

This is an urgent appeal - therefore I marked it as P2.

I attach two files which you can compare and see how the "Compare Document" is
not so useful. I request that this matter is urgently looked at. It'll probably
not be ready in time for me, but this anomaly in the compare document feature is
resulting in a lot of extra work for me whilst I'm verify editing changes made
to a large document.

Each time I make a little change in larger paragraphs the verifying takes up
just too much of my time and in fact it is demoralizing.

Hello Writer developers,

Is there any way this could be attended to soon, like in the next few days?

I compared the self same document with MSWord 2003 and it compares as I
expected, and it'll save me a lot of time using their compare; but it is
definitely not my first choice.

Please advise soonest.

Kind regards
Emmanuel
