Figure 7.5 – Comparing the schemas<br />

4. Use the Structural Compare pane to navigate through the differences between the two schemas.<br />

Click the Next Difference or Previous Difference buttons to see the differences between<br />

the schemas.<br />

5. Use the Structural Compare view to locate the COURSE.INSTRUCTOR_PHONE column, as<br />

shown in Figure 7.6. Note that the Structural Compare view shows that the object does not exist<br />

in the source schema.<br />

Figure 7.6 – Locating the new column<br />

The Property Compare pane lets you compare the differences between each data object. The left side of<br />

the pane contains the information about the object in the data model. The right side of the pane contains<br />

the information about the object in the source database, if it exists.<br />

6. Right-click the INSTRUCTOR_PHONE column and select Analyze Left Impact. The Impacted<br />

Objects view opens. Since no other data objects reference this column, and since there are no<br />

dependencies, there is no impact displayed in the Impacted Objects view.<br />

7. Use the Property Compare view to specify that you want to copy the new column to the source<br />

schema. Click the Copy from Left to Right button.<br />

8. Use the Structural Compare view to locate the STUDENT_PHONE column.
