While trying to compare code i developed on the road with code from my office, i got annoyed that you can't use LvDiff b/c of the Vi's having the same name.
because i have meta-diff installed, that gives me access to a context menu tool, so i wrote a bat script to copy and rename the first vi to the temp directory, and then call lvdiff. this method will even let you compare the same file... i'll think of why that could be cool later.
thought i would post it here in case anybody else had the same issue.
what's strange is that NI implemented the same type of behavior in the "compare heirarchy" tool. With more steps!
just rename the attached file to lvdiff.bat
