RE: Database Tooling

Justin,
Hate to be moderating again, however I think Jon is mainly looking for Entity Relation Diagrams, etc. For example, if you have Referential Integrity set up between OrderLine, OrderHeader, CustomerMaster, ItemMaster, ItemClass, etc a good tool should be able to show you all those relations graphically.
Does SQuirreL have these?

The two tools are definitely within the same class. I don't think Run SQL Scripts has content assist or editing. SQuirreL has good export options. It's cross-platform so I can also use it for SQL Server. It shows the data types of results, but that's more a benefit for SQL Server.

I looked at Squirrel a while back but it seemed to offer little more than Run SQL scripts etc. What am I missing?
