Alright guys, heres a cool one for any of you GURU's out there that wanna
make something neat!

I have a test backend and a live backend. I make changes in my testbackend,
as do the other programmers working on this project. I have the problem
though, of sometimes a programmer won't tell me if he made a change to the
test backend, so when we go live, uh oh.. problem. is there anyone out there
that has made a function or anything that will prompt me for test backend
and then live backend. compare the two and spit out the info on what is
diff.

I.E. field names/type/desc. added fields/ missing fields/ EVERYTHING diff
about it

Lemme know. Thanks in advance

Michael

That kind of thing is called a source code management system
and it's a very heavy duty operation. Try searching the web
for suggestions.
