Comparing Baselines Using the Command
Line 
Use
You can use this procedure to do the following using the command line mode.
· View baselines
· Compare baselines
· Compare change lists
The benefit of using this mode is that you can compare baselines and change lists simultaneously, unlike when you use the Baseline Comparison Tool in the user interface mode.
The parameters used to define the criteria for comparison are explained below.
