Interesting - you've been complaining about the way the 'Enterprise Manager' part compares to pgAdmin up until now, not the Query Analyser. Out of interest, what is wrong with our Query Tool? We may well have resolved many of the issues - for example, 1.6 will have: - A 'Favourites' query manager - Zero data load time through the use of a new virtual grid control. This supercedes my blog entry about the previous speed enhancements. - 'Quick Reports' - allow you to dump your queries and results to XHTML/XML reports, optionally XSLT transformed using a stylesheet of your choice. - Auto complete in the editor And of course, since the DBAs who prompted you to write PGLA would have evaluated it, we've also added: - Ability to export query results to file - Async notification support - Graphical Explain - Ability to switch to a different database Regards, Dave.
