Compare and Find Differences Between Microsoft Access Macros (including Embedded Macros)

Total Access Detective performs detailed comparisons between two macros to reveal exactly what's different. Compare two macros in one database or identically named macros in two databases (MDB, ADP, or ACCDB formats).

Total Access Detective makes it easy to find changes to your macros:

  • Macro property differences (description, last updated, etc.)
  • Macros line difference for the main macro
  • Sub Macro names that exist in one macro and not in the other
  • Macros line differences for identically named sub macros

Embedded macros on forms and reports are compared when the form/report is compared. Embedded macros for the same event on identically named controls are compared.
