Schema Compare - How to take referenced projects into account?

Question

I've created a database project and several databases projects that reference that project. I would like to use VS2008 Schema Compare to compare the schema of one of the databases to my development database.

So far, so good. But when I check the result, it says it will skip all references!?

Question: How can I include the referenced database into my compare?

Ps. Comparing the "base" database first and then the other database won't work either, because it will result in drops.

Answer 1

Each project must be compared individually. More info about pros and cons here. Hopefully it will be better in the future...

Answer 2

According to the MSDN page on "Compare and Synchronize Database Schemas" the meaning of Skip Referenced is

The object exists in a referenced database and does not need to be dropped or created

That basically means that those objects already exist in the database and won't be created or deleted, they're unchanged.
