Hi Alecs, I wasn't aware of the new migration features in Doctrine 1.2 (symfony 1.3/1.4).
I've done some research, and this article tutorial ( http://www.denderello.com/publications/guide-to-doctrine-migrations) contains some great information on how the feature works. I'm now successfully using Doctrine Migrations in our project.
