Team Foundation Server compare with specific version

Within SQL Compare it is possible to register a TFS folder(s) so that a 'get latest version' is performed prior to a comparison being carried out.
Is it also possible from within SQL Compare to get a specific labelled version (or even a changeset version) of the TFS files prior to a compare rather than simply the latest version?
It can be the case the we label a specific internal release version during database development and it would be useful to compare one internal release version against another so that a sync script could be produced.

In the meantime you can achieve this using Team Explorer or its command line. Simply 'get' the schema to a folder and point SQL Compare at this. It's not as integrated as it could be but will work well in the interim.
For example,
tf get /version:L"Your label"
