Hi, I do lots of work with MS SQL server, that is hosted on a remote host. My trouble is that I have a hard time finding a front-end to the database so I can actually do something. Here are some I tried and what I thought of them Enterprise Manager - Made by Microsoft and seems to only be shipped with the Server Operating Systems, which sucks because it's a pretty nice program (easy to use) DataDino - Decent program that works alright, made in Java I believe, it gets you by but I'm not a big fan of it. Doesn't let you edit fields table names and such unless you pay money. EMS MS SQL Manager - Excellent Program for databases, I believe you can use other kinds of databases with this as well. Lets you do just about anything you can imagine. Free Trial that expires after 30 days, after that they want like 400 dollars or some other figure I don't have. I would still be using this..but the trial ran up.. So now i'm wondering what other programs are out there, or maybe some of you're guys' personal preferences. Thanks, kag1 PS. I read on a website that it's possible to use MS Access to front end a MS SQL Server, but I see no how-tos or documentation on it at all. Anyone familiar with this?

I'd love to have a real IDE for SQL server that wasn't stupidly expensive :(
