Compare values in sys tables

wdhenrikwdhenrik Posts: 15 Bronze 1
I want to compare some SQL Agent job definitions in the MSDB database.

SQL Compare can't see them because they are not "objects" and SQL Data Compare doesn't see the sys tables.

Any suggestions? It will save me a lot of time if i can use one of the comparison tools for this.

Thanks,
Wes

    Hi

    Thank you for your forum post.

    You cannot compare system objects or sys tables using SQL Compare or SQL Data Compare, which means you cannot compare SQL Agent job definitions. Sorry.

    Many Thanks

    Please add comparing sys tables into the options menu. I can understand why you wouldn't want them to be included in the default settings, but this could be very useful.
