I use the toad to sync db schemas and their data (begrudgingly). I have to do this because of some sloppy habits of peer developers who are working against the clock and skip many common sense steps. I think a "Record Session" button that would track all changes made to one or more databases would certainly be beneficial for more reasons than just mine. The "Recorder", would record all changes (or optional changes through some config screen) that the user entered/executed/altered to a schema and its data and save it in a single file (or multiple files if the record spanned multiple db's). This would serve as a great audit tool or replication tool. The developer would do the changes, save the script, and it's ready for deployment to say a production platform. Svendy
