Hi,
The utility compares the source DBC to the target, prints out the differences and then makes all the required mods to the target DBC.

>>>Copying the new DBC over the old one doesn't seem a good idea to me. It simply isn't quite safe. Any change done to a table structure is done to the table and the database at the same time. Any discrepancy can prevent you from opening the table at all.
