Jul 9, 2014 at 14:20 comment added Aaron Bertrand That's what data compare does - you can review the comparisons if you want, but just click the GO button and it makes the destination data look exactly like the source data.
Jul 9, 2014 at 14:19 comment added Dan Ribar I actually just downloaded SQL data compare as an option, but I really don't need to compare -- I just want to copy all the data so dev looks like prod from a data perspective. I ran the compare on three tables that had a couple hundred thousand records and it was a slowwwww process so I ruled it out. Thanks for the thoughts.

Jul 9, 2014 at 14:09 comment added Thomas Stringer SSIS would still get my vote. You could always write your own script (with PowerShell, for example) but that's more work than necessary. That's a very simple task with SSIS.
