Why thank you :-) I kept meaning to reply to this thread and mention mysqldiff: http://www.adamspiers.org/computing/mysqldiff/ (Now that I search Google for it, I also see http://www.mysqldiff.org/, but I'm unsure of the relationship between the two.)

Hello John, I am new to MySQL.

Is there something like this for MySQL ? We have developed an IDE for database development that runs on Windows and it includes a schema compare utility, have a look here: www.upscene.com/documentation/dbw3/tools_schemacompare.htm The tool is called Database Workbench, see www.upscene.com I'm sorry to report that our webhosting service is in the middle of a hardware update at the moment and the website appears to be down, but it should be OK later this day.
