Contents of previous patches?

Bill Schwab-2
Blair,

Is there a way to view the contents of patches previously applied?  I'm
having a problem that one might argue appeared after applying PL1, so I'd
like to review the changes along with the many things that I might have
broken all by myself :)

Have a good one,

Bill

The Source Tracking System might be what you need if you break things often
and would like to go back to your previous version(s)  ;-)

Use a clean image and select LiveUpdate. Select the update in the list,
right click and from the popup menu select open. This copies the complete
patch into a workspace which can then be saved.

You can usually use this to repatch a clean image without having to go
online again but this won't work with D4P1 as it has to go back online to
get the PersonalMoney package.
