| Is there any front IDE for MS SQL as there is MySQL Front for MySQL. I
am looking for it so that it is easy to quickly add/edit/delete the
data from the existing table. Please prode the Download URL is there is
any.
Regards.

Each server doesn't necessarily need a dedicated IDE. Any generic database
IDE that can talk ODBC or has a driver for the particular back-end will work.
The most obvious IDE for MS Sql server is MS Access which, in addition to
being able to link to SQL Server tables as if they were local, also has a
dedicated database format called an ADP which, while alomost useless for
application development, is a splendid user interface for doing ad-hoc work
with SQL Server back-end data.
If you want something free, there's TOAD for MS SQL Server
(http://www.toadsoft.com/toadsqlserv...d_sqlserver.htm). The free license
expired after 60 days, but they let you download and re-install to keep using
it for free.
Another free thing you can use is OpenOffice. Last time I tried it, I
couldn't get the OpenOffice database access stuff to work, but I understand
that it has been greatly improved since I last tried it.

| Thanks.
I could not connect to the MS SQL Database from MS Access 2003. I
download Toad for MSSQL and it is working good.

You might want to give our database development IDE a try -
it works with MySQL AND MS SQL Server, without being
generic.

I don't know why you couldn't connect from Access 2003. I do that on a
regular basis, and it works great. What sort of problem were you having?
