Any third-party freebies to administer MSDE?

Are there any third party freebies available to administer MSDE? I'm looking
to replace Interbase with MSDE, but I'll need some sort of Query Analyzer /
Admin interface to replace IBConsole which is free with Interbase. Is
anything like this available?
Thanks for your help,
Joe Geretz

There aren't only 3rd party tools, have a look at MS Web Administrator:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
The only disadvantage I can see is the poor performance.
I have also tested DbaMgr (http://www.asql.biz/DbaMgr.shtm) and the free
version of myLittleAdmin (http://www.mylittletools.net/scripts/en/mla_sql/).
For having a quick look at your databases, myLittleAdmin is very good.
Bye,

Any ill effects w/SP4

Hi,
Has anyone had any ill effects after applying SP4?
Thanks,
Bryan
If you are using AWE, you will need a post-SP4 hotfix.

ending anymore (error 17883)...did not try to install post-fix for complex
query but I went back to SP3a ...
mem dumps + logs sended to PSS. Never got answer to our performances problems.
