About WinSQL
WinSQL is a powerful universal database management tool that is used by 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies and more than a million programmers and DBAs around the globe. WinSQL is a generic querying tool that connects to any relational database (RDBMS) for which an Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) driver is available, virtually all RDBMS on the market today. Connect to a variety of databases, including: heavy duty vendors Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2, Sybase, Informix to lightweight backends like MS Access, DBase, and Text File. Generate royalty-free executables that can be used by your business users to run queries. These can be either static or dynamic queries that pull fresh data from the back-end. Export or simply open any query results into MS Excel with just a click of your mouse. You can even import an existing Excel spreadsheet to a database table by simply dragging an *.XSL file in the catalog tree.
