HI

I have 5 different database and a Master DB with same Schema .I am looking for a tool which can check any changes( new row insertion ) has happened since my last update and Sync with my Master DB . Is there any tool available for this

A: 

Sounds like a good case for using merge replication.

A: 

Don't know about free tools - but I know of the redgate's data compare which will do this job for you. It's automatable. Having used it for this task I'd strongly recommend it.

As a personal solution, since you're using SQL Server you could iterate the tables (sys.tables), and do an join between DBs and see what needs to be inserted/deleted etc. Sounds like a tedious job though if you reuse Keys. If the keys are not reused then the task is quite simple.
