The free, open-source SchemaCrawler for SQL Server tool is desinged to do just this. You can take human-readable snapshots of the schema and data, for later comparison. Comparisons are done using a standard diff tool such as WinMerge. SchemaCrawler outputs details of your schema (tables, views, procedures, and more) in a diff-able plain-text format (text, CSV, or XHTML). SchemaCrawler can also output data (including CLOBs and BLOBs) in the same plain-text formats. SchemaCrawler is available at SourceForge: http://schemacrawler.sourceforge.net/ Sualeh Fatehi -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
