Comparing table structures between databases

Unfortunatly 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.
