SQL Server

[deltrotter]

Hi

I have an iBook and a PC. The only thing stopping me booting the PC is that I need a connection to an SQL server. Thus I use MS SQL Enterprise Manager on the PC.

Has anyone used anything on OS X to connect to SQL Server and manage tables etc, maybe export data etc. I have done a search on Google and there are packages about, but really I want to hear reviews!

Here's hoping!

Cheers

Never tried it, but I expect dbVisualizer + a jdbc driver would be a good combination.

Thanks STCanard, I'll look into that.

Any more, anyone?

I use this in a Windows environment, and its quite handy. Usually I am just viewing data and executing SQL and it handles it fine. Can't beat the cost either.

SquirrelSQL is another not so pretty looking alternative as well.

You might also want to check the following out...

Aqua Studio - http://www.aquafold.com/

I personally use Aqua Studio on my powerbook to work with an Oracle database and all in all I am quite please with it.

Hope this helps.
