Compare database across servers

  • Hi,

    I want to compare the database structures(columns,datatypes..etc) across same databases located in different servers. Can you please let me know how we can achieve this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah - right up until the yahoos here in Alabama come up and ask me "do you rescue baby squirrels??" (or some variant dealing with squirrels)!! That has happened three times now, usually in the Wal-Mart parking lot! :w00t:

    Both "SQL DBA" and "SQL Guru" are excellent plates!

    I would pick "SQL DRIVR" (get it?) if I had a car. :hehe:
