This should be a drop-dead simple thing to do, but I can't find out how:

I want to produce a comprehensive list of changed requirements since the last baseline. The easiest way would be to produce a view showing only items that have changed Object Text since the last baseline, with a column that shows the corresponding baseline text for those requirements.

It's not enough just to filter on the "Last Modified On", since that may include items with other attributes modified, and it only filters on the day, not time-of-day (i.e. if I made changes in the morning, baselined at noon, and made more modifications in the afternoon, filtering on Last Modified On would not differentiate between changes made before and after baseline).

The Baseline/Compare option comes close, but it doesn't include the text of deleted and added items, nor does it place the items in the order they appear in the module.

I haven't found a way even to establish reliable links between the current view and the corresponding requirements (same Object Identifier) in a baseline: the Module Comparison wizard fails to match requirements with a large proportion of changes, and you can't select for it to ONLY use the Object ID. And Link by Attribute won't allow me to select a baseline to link to. Sigh.

Information on any way to cause DOORS to do this would be appreciated.

Since Object Text has the Generate History Property and that History is erased when you baselined, you could look for objects that have any History for modifying Object Text. The attached should get you going.
