The reason we made the change was that some users wanted the sync script window kept open so they could have a look at the action plan & warnings while they were editing the sync script in management studio

We've had a request for this already; unfortunately there is no command line option for the ssms.exe program that allows you to open a tab in an existing window.

Could I just ask why you think this might be an issue? Comparing a database to itself (ideally) results in every object as identical to itself. / comments

SQL Compare does support differential backups, but you also need to provide the full backup the differential was created against, else it has nothing to diff against.

Textual object renames are one of the perennial problems of SQL Compare; as the actual object text is stored in SQL Server, we have to refactor objects as we go. We currently don't do this for DML triggers, however there is a bug about it (SC-3926) that is due to be fixed for the 8.0 release.

Hi Turambar,
We don't really allow a scripts database to be exported to an existing folder, as there could be files in that folder already that cause the resulting scripts folder to represent an invalid database.
To do what you need, you can synchronize from the live database onto the scripts folder, which will make the scripts the same as the live database.

In the beta, the change sync direction has been replaced with the switch button. In the final release, there will be a similar switch button on the main screen so you can swap the datasources without having to re-register the databases. Would this be useful to you?

Ah, sorry, I meant we do not deal with ALTER TABLE commands that alter the table structure itself, only commands that add objects or subsidiary features to the table (defaults, constraints, keys, changetracking...) / comments

SQL Compare does not read ALTER VIEW/PROCEDURE/TRIGGER etc statements in a script folder - it only reads schema statements that explicitly create an object. / comments
