SqlBuddy


SqlBuddy made retrieving data from the SYBASE SQL Server relational database a breeze! With SqlBuddy, the novice user could quickly and easily construct and execute database commands and view the results. Sql Buddy allowed you to browse through database servers, databases, and tables and retrieve data. SqlBuddy's point-and-click query builder allowed you to create Structured Query Language queries without knowing any SQL.

You could select databases, tables and columns that would be included in the query; specify relationships between the tables; sort results; and use advanced SQL features such as grouping and computes. The Rich Query format extended the query description to included relationships between all of the query's parts. SQLBuddy could save results from executed commands as RTF files, as plain text, or in a user-defined format. Database programmers and administrators could browse the system tables and run any database command. For convenience, all database commands and all system stored procedures were available as templates from the menu. Frequently used queries and commands could easily be saved to the user's personal templates menu.

SqlBuddy was an application that allowed users to construct and execute database commands and view the results. SqlBuddy created a friendly environment for working with relational databases.

The SqlBuddy application was an invaluable tool for all levels of database users, programmers and administrators. Users could browse through database servers, databases and tables and could retrieve the data they want. They could do all this without knowing the Structured Query Language (SQL) because with SqlBuddy, queries could be created with the easy to use point-and-click query construction of the Query Builder. With the Query Builder, users could select which databases, tables and columns they want in the query, set parameters for the query, specify relationships between the tables and sort the results. In addition, they could use any of the advanced SQL features such as grouping and computes.

Queries could be saved and retrieved from files either as standard SQL text or in Objective Technologies' Rich Query format. The Rich Query format extended the query description to include the relationships between all of the query's parts. SqlBuddy could save results from executed commands either as RTF files or as plain text. It could also create data files in a user defined format. To make it even easier, both Rich Query and SQL text files could be used interchangeably with Objective Technologies' OTProvideî product which managed and inserted the results from queries into Lotus Improvî worksheets.

But SqlBuddy wasn't just for database users. Database programmers and administrators really appreciated it because in addition to all the other features, they could browse the system tables and run any database command. To make it even more convenient, all database commands and (for the Sybase database) all system stored procedures were available as templates from the menu. Frequently used queries and commands could even be easily saved to the menu.

SqlBuddy was seamlessly integrated into the NeXTstep environment. It provided database access services through inter-process communication, making it simple to place rich-text query results in any document using NeXT's "Services" facility.

SqlBuddy worked with the Sybase, Oracle and othe relational database packages.
