Subject: [toad] Schema Comparison Nusiances 11.6.1



I'm in the middle of comparing ~25 schemas for first of 4 separate environments to a baseline for the first of many times and want to point out a few annoyances in 11.6.1.

1. Select source schema definition file, click in and define target, OK to return to Options and the source is blanked.
2. The ellipse always open User Files. Two days later I have the revelation of copying all of the SDXML files there, but it would be nice if it could remember the prior paths.

My goal is to make this a repeatable process using the Automation Designer. I'm thinking I need generic schema specific source/target.SDXML files vs. the default SID/timespamped file names. Same goes for the sync scripts and report files.

This is an incredibly powerful combination of tools I feel is somewhat under-advertised. Who doesn't, or better, who shouldn't be routinely comparing development/test environments to pre-established baselines.
