Viewing and Comparing Version Snapshots
The Differences tab page shows a side-by-side comparison of two snapshots. The 
timestamp of each snapshot is displayed above the scroll area showing that 
snapshot. The background color of the older snapshot is darker than the 
background of the newer snapshot. The arrow icon between the snapshot 
selectors always points from the older snapshot to the newer one. If the two 
snapshots have the same timestamp, the arrow will not be displayed. The scroll 
bars are synchronized to view the same portion of each snapshot file 
simultaneously. Click and drag the separator bar between the two panes to resize 
each pane. At the top of the separator bar between the two panes, click the 
left/right arrows to close the corresponding pane. The left/right arrows move to 
one side.

format displayed on the Summary tab page without the color highlighting. The 
Detail report type shows a detailed breakdown of the differences. Use the Export 
button to save the selected report to a text file.
