Hi Sue,=20 There are lots of them.=20 TOAD SQL*Navigator Benthic Golden Just to name a few. There's also Oracle's SQL*Worksheet.=20 However, the users' needs must be considered. =20 IF they need a friendly db-browser and sql window, use Toad. =20 If they need pl/sql debugging, use SQL*Nav (I prefer sql*nav for this over Toad.) =20 If they just need nice command history and a bit of enhanced functionality, check out Benthic Golden. OF course, if buying licenses (Benthic is cheap) is not an option, SQL*Worksheet may fit the bill.=20 Two cents from a monkey!
