Thank you for your interest in DBComp!

Please read the documentation & precautions before you put the
program into production use. Archive all databases to be modified
by DBComp in advance.

DBComp is a database comparison and merge application. The program
performs two basic tasks:

1) The Compare Data Sources function compare two OBDC data sources
for alike vs. different records and generate a Difference File
that lists the records that either do not match or have been
added/deleted from one data source compared to the other. 

2) The Merge function examines a Difference File generated by
DBComp and updates the specified data source via SQL statements.

The program can also perform export-only operations to dump one 
or more tables from a database to an ascii export file.

DBComp can be used to update remote data sources when it is
impractical or inefficient to distribute an entire copy of the
database to the remote location. The program can also be used to
examine a data source against and archived (older) copy for the
purposes of debugging or historical examination. See the program
F1 hlp topic 'Usage Ideas' for more information.
