New It can make a big difference
as Enterprise manager can find your mistakes, and writing a SQL Script by hand more than likely won't until you go to run it. Typos and things like that.

It can be done by hand, or even Visual BASIC 6.0 has some SQL Server tools in it. Which is why MSDE 2000 has a license for use with VIsual Studio 6.0 because of the SQL Tools in it.

Still maybe FIrebird has an IDE Interface for it somewhere? I haven't found one yet, I downloaded the Firebird database, but I hadn't had time to figure it out yet without some GUI to guide me. I need error checking to work out my typos.

New OOo has some basic DB connection/query tools
Supports ODBC, JDBC connections.

I haven't tried it on Windows, though.

New Is that OO as in Open Office?
Otherwise I am not sure what you are talking about?

New Indeed it is OpenOffice.org
Sorry, I guess I was trying to be all hacker-y and elite. (or should I say L33T!)

Thank you for remaining among the non-idiots.

BTW OpenOffice is not bad, from a cursory first inspection. It handles Word 97 documents pretty well. A major drawback for me is that the vaunted Linux still mostly has extremely shitty applications, in particular, the equation editors are horrible (I utterly refuse to deal with something as insane as TeX).
