Thread: client tool
Greetings, I am looking for a client side application to help me develop my queries for PostgreSQL. The client is Windows, the serveris on Linux. I am thinking of something similar to TOAD, which we use to develop our Oracle based applications. Sofar I have used a web based solution, but I would need something to handle more complex queries and situations. If thereis absolutely none for Windows, I can cope with tools running on Linux, but I would prefer something under Windows. Cheers, Hegyvari Krisztian

Do you know about OpenOffice.org's data access? It can build queries visually. I don't know if tora ( see freshmeat for url ) also run on windows. I use it for schema and data browser, but it knows a lot.

You will have to write some of the queries yourself in that tool. Also, you will have to escape the single quotes with another. and don't put a ';' at the end. There are some other quirks, but otherwise, it's really good. It doens't do the latest pgsqlas far as I know , though.

Exactly! TOAD rocks for Oracle development. If you are
looking for the TOAD of PostgreSQL...you GOTTA get:
PostgreSQL Manager
http://www.ems-hitech.com/pgmanager
The professional version is $135. Worth EVERY penny. I used
TOAD like crazy and find that PostgreSQL rocks. It's got a
table wizard, sql editor, and stored procedure editor, and more.
Plus, I've been sending them bug reports and feature requests,
and thedevelopment team is VERY responsive in fixing and adding
features. Their latest 1.5 version rocks. You can download a
trial version from their site.
Ok, enought of a plug from me. I don't even work for them but
I do want them to succeed because the software rox!

Don't suppose you'd have time to write a proper review that could be posted on techdocs? -- Richard Huxton
Yes pgmanager is good. but it hangs for me when I try to grant permission on my database. - any such experience ? Richard Huxton wrote: >On Friday 16 May 2003 1:42 am, D.
