Compare shows deletions and inserts the same way

R

RSunday

I have two almost identical documents. To find the difference I do a "Compare
and Merge document" in tools.

Normally deletions would show up in red striketrough and inserts in
underlined blue (because I have set it like that). But somehow everything
show up as "inserts" - also the text elemets that have been deleted.

It does not help to change the sequence of my documents (which one I open
first or use to show my changes).

I have made two very simple documents for testing - here it shows up
correctly. But in my real documents it doesn't work. I have tried to remove
all formatting from both documents - but with no effect. When I insert the
contents of my test documents in my real documents - suddenly these changes
also all show up as inserts...

Any suggestions?
