  If you have the Pro edition, you can automate this using the command line:

  Or you can purchase the Comparison SDK to compare programatically.

  Does the command line work in that? The instructions don't show that they work for it?

  Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by "work in that". Could you explain in more detail what you are trying to achieve?

  David,
  I had part of the question in the subject earlier.
  The link you sent me only showed me examples using SQL compare 7. I want to know if you can use SQL Compare 6 PRO with a command line.

  Yes, all versions of SQL Compare Pro have command line support. From your SQL Compare folder in Program Files type:
  
  sqlcompare.exe /v /? /html > help.html
  
  Open help.html in a web browser and it will provide you with all the options available to you.
  
  Hope this helps,
