Well, I have to say the answer to both questions is probably DataBee ..... ( www.databee.com <http://www.databee.com> ) , although not via a script.  

Just been using it quite a bit recently, so your question elicited an immediate response.  

Comparison is two-part, of course - DDL and data. Databee excellent for former. On data comparisons you will need a different solution, which will depend on the size of your tables. More on that if required.

I am looking for a script to compare an entire database instance against another. (From system_at_instance, etc).  

I do not want something that has to be done by schema, as I have 50+ schema's to compare.      

ALSO - on a side note, is there an 'easy' way of duplicating a PRODUCTION database over to test, without copying the db files?
