Export both tables to different files and then checksum the files. You might
need to edit the files before checksumming though...

Yes, I am thinking about applying some function to all the data. 
Maybe summarize all numerical columns. I don't know what to do with
character columns.

Sounds like you need a way to hash the whole table and compare the hash
results.  I bet you could write a little procedure to do that.

Hi list, 
I need to quckly compare tables in 2 schemas to verify contents are
identical.
Counting blocks/rows, using tools to compare schemas is not possible. 
Something similar to checksum mechanism is requested. Any ideas ?
