All,

I would like to put in my two farthings and second DL's opinion of
MySQLFront- it is a great tool.  I use it for a number of tasks, including
porting my development database (which I run under IIS 5.0 on Win 2k,
together with PHP 4.0.6) to my "production" database on my web site (which
runs under Solaris).  IMHO, it's the best GUI (for Windows, at least) for
MySQL out there.

Cheers,
Fred Woolsey

Hi Dexter,

I took a look at a number of the MySQL management tools as mentioned in
articles/discussions on various MySQL-interest
web sites. Currently I am using one called MySQL-Front (www.MySQLFront.de)
which I believe works on a variety of
OpSys/platforms. I find that I rarely need to drop into 'native' MySQL these
days (which may not be the best thing for
my SQL DDL skills, but...).

Amongst other things, this tool allows the exporting of tables - either the
structure, or the data, or both. These are
exported as a *.sql file, all ready to be piped straight back into 'native'
MySQL, or using MySQL-Front, brought back
into its editing window - where a quick change to the table name, etc,
followed by in-tool SQL code execution will
produce a clone. Brilliant stuff!

Regards,
=dn
BTW did we solve your previous problem?
