I guess you mean the toSource() method, but I don't follow quite here, how the properties could be compared - or rather how toSource() can be helpful.

"sr" being the TextStyleRange, the following statement ... 

      sr.properties.toSource()




and the one from its paragraphstyle ...

      sr.paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle.properties.toSource()




... returns partly different things,
obviously since the TextStyleRange contains properties from character styles as well as from paragraph style (and perhaps some of its own). Only the "clean" paragraph style properties would match - can toSource() be helpful making such a comparison?

I guess I could try and make use of the complete toSource() strings of the properties of the paragraph styles as keys (property names) in an associative array (if they are allowed as such - they do get very long), to be able to check for the exact same paragraph style.

But getting the differing style properties only, wouldn't that require checking each property from the text style range object against the corresponding one in the containing paragraph, individually?

(
I also noticed a bug in CS3 - when there is no paragraph style (not the Basic Paragraph but NO paragraph style at all), InD craches when you try to do something with the "properties" object of that TextStyleRange object, such as 

  var srProperties = sr.properties;

)
