Startup Compare

I'm pretty happy with the new layout as far as picking the last project or being able to one of the more recent projects. But, one comprise you might think about would be to split the screen with the most recent project at the table or be ble to select one from the list of past projects.

Also, one complaint I've had in the past and it may be outside of the scope of this release and outside of the development direction in general is that when you have a project, I'd rather pick and chose my filter there before it compares rather than wait for it to compare the entire database when all I want to do is compare stored procs or views. This comes into play for larger applications like our CRM package that has nearly 2200 tables in it and we use stored procs for our custom reports. Granted the compare is pretty fast but I don't really care about the tables b/c our database changes are handled through the vendor's deployment tools.

I do like the switch button on the main screen though. That was an issue I had in the past as well.

    Thank you for your feedback. We have considered your first suggestion and have saved it for future releases. Concerning pre-filtering, we have done some performance testing. This has shown us that such pre-filtering would not result in a significant performance improvement, but would certainly affect the reliability of synchronization scripts (dependencies would not be identified properly on pre SQL Server 2008 databases).
    Thanks again for your feedback,

    Regards,
