Re: GUI alternative to IBM Query

In addition to what others have listed, take a look at Surveyor from Linoma 
Software - I think that is still its name.

Anything that comes through ODBC is going to be a security risk. The standard 
object security is critical, but it might be necessary to add exit program 
control on the iSeries using a product like PowerTech's products, or at a 
simpler level you could go with Centerfield Technology's security offering.

Hi Folks, 



Anyone using a GUI based alternative to IBM Query ? 



We had someone show our CFO how to do some stuff with Microsoft's query tool 
and the ODBC drive from Client Access and it appears to have absolutely NO 
security what-so-ever and I see all kinds of problems with rolling that out. 



Thanks !
