Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

If you just want to compare the baseline start and finish from another (older) file with the current start and finish in the newer file you can just copy and paste the baseline start and baseline finish fields from the older and paste them into corresponding fields in the newer file.
This assumes that you still have the same number of tasks in the same arrangement with the same ID numbers in both files, but even if not it is still easy with a bit of help from filters etc.

Alex,
Thanks for your input, so MS.Project can not import a baseline from other file. My problem is I want to compare the current schedule with one of my scenario when developed the schedule. thanks
