Hi Folks, I'm coming from SQL Server 7.0 on NT 4, and I really find dbaccess primitive. Please tell me - what GUI tools are available for Linux? Something that compares with SQL Server would be great, i.e. Excel-like viewing and editing of data, nice editor for trying SQL, opening SQL files, etc. I can't imagine people are *developing* using dbaccess. Thanks in advance... matt cornell@cs.umass.edu

Hi there. If you don't feel you have to sit at the server-console while developing, there is no problem at all to use your GUI-NT4 tools. There are a bunch of them available. You just setup a client-machine and run NT4 on that. Connect to the Linux-server running IDS2000, and you're free to choose almost whatever tool you'd like for your developing. /F
