I just tried this with Visual Studio 2010 and a registered copy of ExamDiff v4.5 and it works very well. I was glad to see it can compare a local version of a file to a server version. Typical TFS task but I wasn't sure ExamDiff could read the server version. Worked very well thanks! I will research but am wondering if ExamDiff can be used to resolve conflicts in TFS. Maybe not yet but would be a wonderful and very useful addition. Thanks, Chris
