That's a very wide question.
Could you be more specific?


No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

We use Tool Red Gate SQL compare and Data compare. It produces a script to tell you what you would apply on Prod to make it equivalent to Dev.

In the meantime you can do Tasks->Generate Scripts... and compare these outputs in MS Word or some text compare tool.

Update production - do you mean that dbs running are updated with data from development?

Production Environment is accessed by business and do get updated by business users.
Development Enviroments is manipulated by developers and application dba's.

Most of the cases development is refreshed with the data (by taking the backup) from production and the way gets updated. This depends on your production and development environments if are similar.

Just a guess, since the original poster hasn't said a whole lot. But if the system is Data Driven, you may need to send data from Dev to Prod. Such as if you have a table that determines which text boxes are visible. In that case, we use Red Gate Data compare.
