Originally, way back in 2000, I created PAGEINFO.SQR as a way to more easily compare pages in two different databases when performing an upgrade. If you have ever worked with PeopleSoft's Page Compare Reports, you know that they can be quite the headache. Small changes tend to result in dozens of pages. I wanted a program that would simply list the "important" attributes of the page so that I could then compare the results of two outputs in Beyond Compare. I didn't really care if a field (or the whole page, for that matter) was nudged down a couple of pixels.
Although I still use it for upgrade projects, the program has evolved over the years to include much more information about how the page is used within PeopleSoft. Given a page, it will now report related:
- Components
- Navigation Paths
- Portal Locations
- Roles
- Permission Lists
Hopefully some of you will find it useful. I learned a lot of little tricks while writing this program.

Brilliant!!!!
Very nice article. There is one more utility available on net that opens App Designer directly from the page that opens by Ctrl+J keys. More details are on http://peoplesoftsupport.blogspot.com/
Compare and merge page feature is graphical/Visual way of comparing 2pages in different database.
We can compare attribute by attribute and differences are marked in Red.
Open the page to be compared and go to tools and select compare and merge page features.
