Compare and sync different databases using management studio

  • Can anyone please guide me in doing this ?

  • Management Studios does not have the ability to sync databases for you. You can do a stare-and-compare by visually examining 2 different DBs, but it will not do the comparision for you, generate a delta report, and do any schema or data syncing.

    There is software packages out there that do, like RedGate's SQL Compare. You could also create a full schema script for each DB and compare them in a text compare tool like Beyond Compare. You'll then be responsible for creating the DDL necessary to sync the schemas. RedGate's SQL Compare will do all of that for you.
