Apr 18, 2012 at 22:04 comment added Aaron Bertrand You'll also want to consider whether any of the columns are NULLable. This can affect how you do your comparisons (ideally the columns will all be defined as NOT NULL).
Apr 18, 2012 at 21:53 comment added Zelda @AaronBertrand nvarchars and ints, with some odds and ends like datetimes. Could be anything, multiple tables actually.

Apr 18, 2012 at 19:15 comment added Aaron Bertrand Thanks, from this sample data, which rows do you want returned? They all seem to have the same settings, I assume you meant to show at least one row where at least one setting was different?

Apr 18, 2012 at 19:08 comment added Aaron Bertrand Still hard to visualize without sample data / desired results.
Apr 18, 2012 at 18:47 comment added Aaron Bertrand Can you show a few rows of sample data and your desired results from the query? Also can you explain what column(s) make up the key in each table? It may be that EXCEPT is not the syntactic sugar you want or need in this case.
