Subject Re: [Firebird-general] An Embarrassment of Admin Tools
Author siberian@siberian.org
I use Database Workbench and absolutely love it. From my
windows desktop I can admin database strewn about the
world, both mysql and firebird, and really feel that its
one of the best admin/db manipulation tools I've ever
used.

Very stable, great features and highly polished
presentation.
