I have recently baselined a set of requirements in DOORS. The change bars in DOORS and WEXP allows the marking of changes from a baseline to the current state. But when we change traces, there doesn't seem to be a possiblity to track the changes.

Before I (as a newbie) start playing with DXL scripts that look through the history of modules and all kinds of hacks, I wonder how the doors community handles this?

Any tips on DXL for this purpose are welcome as well

BR dan.

Dan,

What you're asking can be done, but likely isn't straightfoward. Here's what I would do...

Export two MS Word files in table format, like so

Col 1: ID
Col 2: Main
Col 3: Links

One of the MS Word files will be your current module, the other will be the baseline module.

If you're using at least Office XP (I don't know if this feature existed before then), you can use Tools>Compare and Merge documents with the legal blackline option.

This can be used for more than links, by the way.
