SSMS Integration Pack Suggestion

Not sure if it was done this way because of licensing but it would be nice to have access to both Schema and Data on one menu/page rather than separate.

More times than not when I do a Schema compare I do a Data compare right after I change schema.

Rather than having to select Source and Target for Schema compare then have to go back to do the same thing for Data compare I would like to be able to select Source and Target once then have the option to do either Schema, Data or Both from a single page.

Not sure if it's possible but would be a nice enhancement.

Thanks for the great tools! Makes my life so much easier!

There is a link to open the Data Compare screen in SSMS (top right) that preserves the data source selections. Is this what you're looking for?

Yes, thats exactly what I was asking for.

I just didn't take the time to look up in the corner and had it in my head that it should be a button similar the one toward the bottom of the page.

Very good. Thanks for the response.

To your credit it's not very obvious. Where would you have expected this to be?
