I actually use Dia to draw my database and then use dia2code to generate sql that can be run. I've seen other variations of the same idea, UML diagram to SQL to code is the basic idea. Of course most of them have no idea about the data types for sqlite so you still end up typing out most of it. Not really sure what you need a GUI for at that stage unless you want it to baby step you with check boxes about your options. If that's what you're looking for the firefox plugin is the closest thing I've seen to that. FYI- did you consider asking the plugin developer to add tools you think are useful?

It's actually not so bad once you use it a bit. It's an all-in-one CRM app thingy that does basically everything the consultants have to do at my previous work. The front page that you're looking at, I was told, had to have some basic company details, and a contacts & locations list. So that's what it's got. The other pages aren't so cluttered. We found it was best to have everything integrated like this instead of lots of little single-purpose forms because then all features are available within a single click, and it doesn't take time to load the form up. Also people start to get confused with lots of forms open. And seriously, they need all those pages. It's quite common for a consultant to navigate to a client, then flip through at least half of the pages. Anyway, I don't work there any more, so my replacement is free to do what he likes with it :) Dan ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users

Re: [sqlite] Best GUI?
This is a bit of a religious question, but which are the mest/most popular *nix GUIs out there? I'm using a firefox plugin but not entirely happy with it. What do you use and why? A lot depends on what you are trying to accomplish. For example, I move between several machines, mixed between several Linux distros and two Windows versions with an USB drive. I have used sqliteadmin, sqlitespy, and sqlite database browser (all Windows executables, all work under wine). I have also tried WinSQL (which is an ODBC-driven program I use when my clients give me SQL access to the applications I'm installing for them. None of these really provide the kind of data entry screens I'd like to have; I have not had time to try OOo Base yet. I'd be interested in other responses you get, as well. Alan B.
