About Data Structure Analysis

You can use Power*Architect's many data structure analysis features to view information about a data model or database. You can:

Compare two data models to view the differences and similarities. Generate and run a SQL script to update an older database to match a newer data model.
For more information, see:
- the section called “Comparing Data Models”
View a profile of the data in a database table.
For more information, see:

Create a report listing the source tables used for the tables in your Power*Architect data model.
