Review (date Jul 2 2003
):
An excellent program for working with SQL. It is possible to work with any DBMS supporting ADO plus it has a native support for MSSQL, ORACLE and INFORMIX servers. A very convenient interface that is compact since it has no unnecessary items, and at the same time practically everything you may need is among its buttons or in its context menus. Besides, you can always hide what you don't need at the moment. "Fine tweaking" is also perfectly realized. In the program you can find nearly every function necessary for working with SQL. Visual SQL builder, data transferring script generation and viewing BLOB fields are well implemented. Export and the report generator are especially good - there are 13 formats with customizable settings that can be saved and loaded, HTML templates, etc. Taking into account its features, the price of the software is quite agreeable.
