I'm needing to develop a couple small applications using a MySQL database, and I'm looking at GUI's for this purpose. The most popular seems to be Navicat, and for the most part, it's accessible enough, but in certain cases, not enough, such as the drop-down list for field type. I just cannot find the silly button to drop down the list! So I'm ready to abandon it and try something else. Anyone got any good ideas on this? Should this be posted to the blind programming list instead? Any assistance greatly appreciated.
Hi, We use MySQL a lot at work. Two clients I use are as follows: EMS for Windows http://www.sqlmanager.net/products/mysql/manager - usable as much as I can do everything I need to do on it, I mainly use the cli for most things these days. The other one we use is PHPMyAdmin which is a web based MySQL management tool, which although is a bit clunky, can be used successfully with JFW.

Thanks, Andrew, but it looks a daunting list of possibvilities--manager, studio, developer, ... which one to pick? Remember, I'm very new at this, but not new to DBMS in general or the IT industry as a whole, just doing it on a PC is what's new. I've been into Revelation since the 80's, VAX DATATRIEVE since at least then, and programmed TOTAL databases for dog's-years. The concepts aren't new, only the interface and what works best with speech (mostly JAWS, but WEE is also a possibility if it's a better fit). Thanks in advance.
