Compare and Restore Tables

I have a database with 44 user tables that had some data deleted. I have
a 2 month old backup of the .mdf and .ldf files I can reatach to the
Server (not the proper sql backup wizard method).

Is there a way I can compare the data that is in the old database to the
new and pull in the records from the old that don't exist in new
database?

Thanks,
Steve

Using the INFORMATION_SCHEMA views you can write a script that uses the PKs
for each table to insert into the new table that does not already exist in
the table already.
