Briefcase

This proc compares the table definition and the data in a table which is in two of your databases. Typically you may have a development database and a production database on the same server and you just want to know that the table is the same on both. (This proc will express the data differences in terms of SQL in which you need to execute to bring them in line)
Typical Call:- utl_CompareTables 'YourTable', 'YourOtherDatabase'

If the SQL expressed to bring the tables in line needs to be reversed (i.e. INSERTs become DELETEs etc.) then simply run from your other database.

No match to Redgate's SQL Compare but good for a quick look!
