All: As the DBA Team Lead, I am in a dilemma. One of my experineced DBA insists that the developers/programmers must use the Designer tool to design the table structures, modify the design, and other database activities. However, the developers hate this "user-unfriendly" cumbersome tool, and keep complaining to me to find an alternate tool for version control. My question to the group is: Is there any similar tool to the Designer, which is user-friendly and easy to use? We have money to purchase any other equivalent software. The Designer is a freebee that comes with the Oracle software. Thanks in advance for your suggestions. -- Sincerely Ram Srinivasan -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
