A Special thanks to Richard Deeming...

I went to quick answers with a problem of comparing 2 MSSQL databases. He quickly answered and pointed out that Visual Studio has a built in tool to do that. Must be a very common need. Thank you Richard. :thumbsup::java::java::java::thumbsup: I don't know how you guys that answer these questions find the time to do it. But I am sure glad you do!

Tools -> SQL Server ->New Data Comparison or New Schema Comparison. Helped me tremendously.

Me too... once I had installed the Data Tools. Maybe it's included now, but I recall it being a separate install, in VS 2012.

It's always nice to get a "thank you" - far too often all we get is abuse ... :sigh: But you probably want to tell Richard instead of waiting for him to see it. You can use the "atcode" by prefixing his ID with an "@", and find his ID on his home page:
@RichardDeeming
And the system convert it to a link, and send him a message that you are talking about him: @RichardDeeming

if you say post a comment to his answer he will (if he has them active in his profile) get a direct notification about your post. That's the most direct way to say "thanks" I know. Doing it here is nice too, but could go unnoticed. Summoning him as @OriginalGriff explained is a good method too.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

You locked him in the root cellar? :confused:

I think it may be Enterprise edition only. I use it regularly, it's quite handy, although it has messed up by taking away dbo permissions (my fault though not checking the script).
Nope. my Comunity 2015 edition has it as well as 2017 and 2019

I'd rather let everyone that cares to look, how much I appreciate his help. Also, he can be presently suprised when he sees it. :-D
