Beta 5 SQL Compare - My Thoughts

Sql Compare - when you get the very first screen you start a new project which is where you select your databases - if non are found you get no prompt - be nice for a prompt to sat no databases found for your current selection.

What does dont wait on this screen mean/do? - sounds like a good option though. ;o)

Speeling error in the tool top when you hover over All Identical column on the far right - the tooltip says--> 'The number of idential records in the two objects.'

I like the fact you can now see which tables have no comparison key set - if no primary key on the table then at least we are made aware of this - nice one.

Love the fact that the helps has a script in it to create the examples with - very nice touch.


The actions - select all and deselect all - dont appear to work.

Exporting results - can you change the format? - or show what file extension it will save to? to .txt - might not have excel on our sql server box - Daft I know but just a thought for others.

I compared the same database on both sides and it still let me run the sychronize which I think is a little odd if they are identical.

Looks Really Good - just take a little bit of getting used to finding all the bits and bobs.
