The error you are getting is because you have some tables with foreign keys pointing to a non-existent table or a table that does not have a match on the target DB. To avoid this add this where clause in the dynamic string (line 304 more or less) :

where object_name(FK.referenced_object_id,db_id(”’+@TargetDB+”’)) is not null

Hi thanks for this useful script. I have a
few questions:

Any plans to add SP’s and triggers?

Also this may not really related to your sp, but I ran a test using SSMS Generate script wizard (2008r2) creating a db script from a db, changed the db name to create a dup db.
Then ran your compare sp between the two,
the compare listed several PK row deltas which when examined don’t appear to be actual deltas. If I create a 2nd dup from the generated script then compare with the first dup db your sp lists no differences. Any idea what this may indicate?

Hi,
You did a great job with this script, but could You tell me what should I change with You script to compare BASE_1 with BASE_2 and get as a result the table with DIFFERENCE between tables schema?
For example if I have a table “TABLE1” in both databases and in BASE_1 is additional column “ADDITIONAL_COLUMN” and in BASE_2 there is “ADDITIONAL_COLUMN”. I would like to receive as a result the DIFFERENCE for example BASE_2 Missing column “ADDITIONAL_COLUMN”

Is it hard to receive ??
I will need the same with the indexes …

Could You help me to change this script?
