DataCompare problem

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your post. CreateFrom Intersection behaves exactly like the
UI version of SQL Data Compare in that it excludes tables that are
ineligible for a data comparison. You'll need to put a primary key on those
tables before they will be returned in the common tables collection.

    Thanks for your post. CreateFrom Intersection behaves exactly like the
    UI version of SQL Data Compare in that it excludes tables that are
    ineligible for a data comparison. You'll need to put a primary key on those
