Hello,

i'm curently running 3.0.1 and i relly need to make the upgrade. THe problem is that i have lot's of files modified. I have the list with the modified files, the installed mods, etc. The problem is that i have to upgrade from 3.0.2 -> 3.0.3 -> 3.0.4 -> 3.0.5

So this isn't to easy. I need to re-apply the chances in all the new modified files. What tools of file compare do you recomand to use ? Or...how exactly to you make changes.

Thancs

As our board is too hacked to just re-appy all hacks (most are custom and not even documented with install instruction ^^) after an upgrade I am using Beyond Compare to merge the new standard code with the installed modifications.

Question.

I have created a directory with all the modifed files since my last upgrade. Now, using Beyond Compare i compare files. I copy everything that is new from the new file, INTO the old file. My question is :

How do i know that there is some..."Crappy" data that vB team has remove doring the upgrades ?
