Hello.

Is there a GUI utility to visually edit Postgres DATA (not a database
schema!), which allows at least:
- insert/update rows using screen windowed forms (possibly ugly
auto-generated forms, but - still forms)
- insert foreign key references by selecting them from a list (not by
typing the keys manually)
- work with multi-line text fields (textarea) for TEXT columns

There is a lot of DB development tools around (e.g. I like EMS
PostgreSQL Manager). But a developer tool is handy for a database
STRUCTURE editing, and when we need to modify its DATA quickly, these
tools are not too useful.

It sounds like you want something like Microsoft Access, or OpenOffice.org Base.

Beware that Access isn't very nice to use with non-Microsoft databases. Its ODBC interface is a bit painful, and you'll need Visual Basic workarounds to properly handle things like primary key generation.

OpenOffice.org base is just so buggy that I've never bothered fully evaluating it for anything.
