Thank you for your post.

After selecting the two databases you wish to compare, you click on the 'compare now' button. SQL Compare performs the comparison.

Once the comparison is successfully completed SQL Compare will give you the following results:

1. Objects that are identical in both databases.
2. Objects that exist only in data source 1.
3. Objects that exist only in data source 2.
4. Objects that exist in both databases but they are different.

Therefore if you are comparing two databases that are identical, you should see results that informs that all objects are identical.

Many Thanks
Eddie

Hi there,

If you are refering to the API, then I am afraid that there is no one method to do this. You will have to loop through the differences object and test each database object's DifferenceType in turn to detect where the differences in the database is.
