Differences in Selected Rows
The comparison between the Master and Data files is a line by line comparison, e.g. line 1 vs. line 1, line 2 vs. line 2, etc.
The lines that display are the lines in the respective files.
Notes
Definition of the elements in a line are listed at the beginning of each section in the file.
If you decide that you do not want to keep any of the changes that you see in the report (where a feature in the data file is different from the same feature in the Master file) go into the Workbench and change the configuration back.
