Comparing notebooks

Quattro Pro lets you compare data between two notebooks, cell by cell. Comparing notebooks lets you quickly discover how data in one notebook differs from data in another notebook. For example, if a notebook lists wine sales by month for one year, and a second notebook lists wine sales by month for a different year, you can compare these two notebooks to discover sales trends.
