For optimum speed, when we check differences between baselines, we use the diff function and export to a tsv file. We open the tsv file in excel and run a macro that processes the rtf tags and gives us the redlined results we desire. The macro runs slow, but it is faster and has fewer problems than exporting directly to excel from DOORS. I've discovered that the diff perm makes each word, space, and punctuation mark its own chunk for apply the rtf tags. The net result is that if object text was added (such as creating a new object) there are twice as many rtf chunks as there are words (each chunk surrounded by {cf3\ul }). In that case the entire Object Text content could be in one {cf3\ul }. This is slowing down the conversion significantly when whole objects are added or deleted. Has anyone a solution for combining chunks with identical tags into a single larger chunk that they would be willing to share?

When I can, My solution has always been to dump the outputs to two separate files and then use word to do the comparison.
