SQL Data Compare From Scripts Folder To Empty Database

robert.barnes.btl

Hi,

I am looking at using the SQL Data Compare API to generate a script that would update add static data to a database.

It works using the provided example after modifying it to work the other direction:
StaticDataWithScriptsExample.cs

but only if the target has already got the tables.

Is it possible to generate the data upgrade script assuming that the tables already exist?

The SDK has three APIs - Redgate.SQLCompare.Engine synchronizes database schema, RedGate.SQLDataCompare.Engine synchronizes the data, and RedGate.SQLPackager.Engine packages the schema and data into an executable.

You must synchronize the schema before synchronizing the data. This example may help: http://sdk.red-gate.com/index.php/SQL_C ... a_and_data
