Subject Is the embedded version right for me?
Author Bjorkman
Hello,
I currently have a java application using another database as an embedded db. I'm looking for replacement.

The benefits of current db:

1) Embedded (just copying files into proper directory at install)
2) My install use a DB already setup with tables and some initial values
3) If a client has problems with the SW they can send the db (4 files) to me and I can test with their DB in my develop environment.
4) If I find a problem with the DB I can update and send back to them
5) There is a good GUI SQL Browser with the project to work with the DB (setting up tables, running sql-script files, adding users, etc.)

From what I can read on the FB Web Site I think the embedded version will support all this but just want to check. Especially for #3 and #4.

For #5 - does the embedded version come with a DB browser? Any 3rd party tools recommended (I found Database Browser on CNET and downloaded SQuirrel SQL to test with). If they can be use, how do I connect to the DB in the development directory?

Any input, help, clarification and feedback is much appreciated.
