| Hi, I was wondering if the tablediff utility of MS SQL 2005 can be used with respect to each column to find the difference of data in two similar tables.... C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\COM>tablediff -sourceserver "SQL2005" -sourcedatabase "DB1" -sourcetable "YY" -destinationserver "SQL2005" -destinationdatabase "DB1" -destinationtable "XX" -f "c:\Diff" Here in the above command line the difference can be taken out with the script....but is that possbile to incude the name od the source and destination columns to find the difference ? Any Suggestion ? |

| Did you check syntax in books online? Tablediff will tell you which column is different in the table. |

| Give you more details at column level? Try it then compare the result with previous one. |
