Comparing table structures between databases

What is the easiest way to compare the table structure of two databases?
I have inherited a project and have found a couple of undocumented
inconsistencies between the development and production databases.
Is there an in-built function or a utility that can help with this?
Thanks,
MikeUnfortunatly no there isn't an easy way.
If you have connection to the internet log on to the site
http://www.adeptsql.com/download.htm and download AdeptSQL
Diff ver 1.6.
We have used that for all our server and works very well.
N.B. You can program it yourself in SQL but will take a
bit of time, and this will hi-light every difference.

Comparing table structures between databases

What is the easiest way to compare the table structure of two databases?
I have inherited a project and have found a couple of undocumented
inconsistencies between the development and production databases.
Is there an in-built function or a utility that can help with this?
