Any ideas?It's called DatabaseHelper, and it's available from the main page. I don't think it will let you modify the fields of an existing database, though. It lets you create a new one from scratch. A lot of people use FileMaker as a handy utility for messing with database structures, too. While it's not great for serving web databases, it's certainly good at editing them locally.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
