Analytical Solutions Inc. Revolutionizes Database Development
With SQL Server Stored Procedure Debugger
ATLANTA, May 1, 1995 --- Today, Analytical Solutions Inc. released SQL Workshop 3.0, a
powerful, Windows based tool for developing database objects. SQL Workshop is the only
product available with a Windows based stored procedure debugger for Microsoft and Sybase
SQL Server databases.
"There are a number of excellent query tools available on the market today" states
Michael D. Sachais, President of Analytical Solutions, Inc. "However, most of those tools
are built for Database Administrators (DBA) and priced accordingly. SQL Workshop, although
capable of performing all Database Administration functions, is tailored towards the
developers of database objects and applications. For example, application developers spend
a majority of their time creating and testing database objects, managing table data, querying
table data, and other similar development tasks. They spend little, if any time creating
database devices, allocating databases, managing database space, creating users, and other
tasks usually performed by database administrators. SQL Workshop is the only tool that
focuses on the application developer and provides all of the functionality client/server
developers need to effectively do their jobs at a price that is affordable to even the smallest
development shops."
Reduces Development Time Of Database Applications
SQL Workshop uses the Microsoft ODBC engine making it the only tool you'll need to manage any
ODBC compliant database in your enterprise. It is the only tool on the market that enables
Microsoft and Sybase SQL Server developers to debug stored procedures by setting break points
and viewing variables within the Windows environment as they test their procedures.
In addition to robust ad hoc query facilities, SQL Workshop distinguishes itself from similar
products by providing developers the ability to:
* Build and test database objects in an integrated development/debugging environment.
* Run the SQL Server Bulk Copy Program (BCP) from a user friendly windows interface. No more
hassles shelling to DOS and formatting the BCP Command Line.
* Search for text in database objects (residing in one or more databases) to create cross
reference reports of objects that reference one another (i.e. What procedures execute
another procedure).
* Transfer table data to and from Excel Spreadsheets using adhoc SQL SELECT queries.
* Compare and transfer data between tables. The tables can even exist on different servers
and be from different database types (i.e. Oracle and Sybase).
* Reverse engineer and report on database objects (tables, indexes, stored procedures, etc.).
* Add, change, and delete rows of data in tables.
* Change table structures without losing the data in the table.
* View and Paste SQL Syntax using an online SQL Syntax Reference system.
* And more..
SQL Workshop 3.0 runs under Microsoft Windows 3.1 and Microsoft NT. It works with both
Sybase and Microsoft SQL Server versions 4.x and Sybase System 10. SQL Workshop follows
conventions used in many other Windows based applications (i.e. drag-and-drop,
pop-up menus, etc.) yielding immediate productivity gains from programmers who use it.
SQL Workshop also comes with extensive on-line help and user documentation to assist
programmers in accomplishing their tasks.
Liz Brown, Financial Stream Product Manager at Dun and Bradstreet Software comments, "Being a
major software vendor, we look for tools to help our developers be as productive as possible.
SQL Workshop improves the productivity of our developers by enabling them to quickly
build and test database objects. Not only are our technicians using it, but our
non-technical people are also using it to test our software. The interface is very
intuitive and user-friendly which enables us to quickly query, extract, and change data
while testing our software. Compared to other query tools we evaluated, SQL Workshop
gives us the functionality we need at an unbeatable price".
Pricing
SQL Workshop 3.0 is being released at an introductory price of $ 299.00 per copy with
site licenses available. "We are committed to the full satisfaction of our customers."
says Sachais. "We encourage our customers to provide us feedback so we can continually
enhance the product based on their needs. Many of our new features are based on customer
requests. We also enable customers to compare SQL Workshop to other products with no
financial risk involved. After their "test drive" of SQL Workshop, they can decide which tool
gives them the best price/performance for their money".
