Compare

Hello Katrina

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

There are a couple of ways of doing this, depending on whether you want to simply look at two documents side-by-side on your screen; or whether you wish to produce one document from two separate documents.

To view two documents next to each other on your screen, use the Compare Side by Side option. You must firstly have both document open; then go to Window - Compare Side by Side. There will be a small toolbar that appears that can be used to control how you scroll through or view the documents once you are in Side by Side view.

To produce one document from two separate documents, use the Compare and Merge feature (Tools - Compare and Merge Documents). You need to have one document open first, then once you go into Compare and Merge, you will be able to open the second document.
