Well, I would define 2 data sets. Load the two at the begining of the audit, then at the time to prefomr &nbsp;the audit, I would take the dataset that was tied to your datagrd or what ever. And I would comapre them line by line like this.<br />
<br />
dim i, j as integer<br />
i=0<br />
while i &lt;&nbsp;then dataset1.tables(0).rows.co<wbr />unt 'no compiler in front of me &nbsp;so count may not be &nbsp;exactly where i typed it<br />
j=0<br />
While j &lt;&nbsp;dataset1.tables(0).colums.<wbr />count ' no compiler so you may have to explorer to find this count<br />
if dataset1.tables(0).rows(i)<wbr />.item(j) = dataset2.tables(0).rows(i)<wbr />.items(j) then<br />
'no diffrences so do notin<br />
else<br />
'diffrence here so do audit<br />
j=j+1<br />
end while<br />
i=i+1<br />
end while<br />
