Divine and Arcane Scrolls

[Nathan]

My question is the following:

Do divine and arcane scrolls with the same spell on it differ in any way from each other?

For example, can a bard cast a cure light wounds scroll crafted by a cleric?

As
As written in DMG P.203, arcane scrolls and divine scrolls are different. A bard can't activate CLW scrolls written by clerics, druids, paladins, rangers, adepts, or other divine casters. In the same way, a wizard/sorcerer can't use a divine scroll of Lightning Bolt written by a adept.

On the other hands, Wands and other Spell Trigger items can be used by both arcane and divine casters.

But Bards (and Rogues) get the Skill use Magic Device, so they can, with enough levels and skill point spend, acticate any kind of scroll or wand...
