    • Click to delete a selected file from the list.
    • Click to add a row to the table.

  7. Click Execute.
    The exported deck is compared with the Reference file.

    To see the difference between the reference file (the input deck) and the HyperCrash exported file, click Diff to display the report.

If you select Reference Version instead of Reference File, the GUI changes slightly. All fields are the same except under the Input Deck section, where the Reference File column is omitted. Select the Current and Reference versions. The HyperCrash session file is executed on the Current and Reference versions and the export decks. Exported decks in the Current and Reference versions are compared.
