Subject: Re: [ale] Recomendation for GUI frontend to MySQL


Speaking of interfaces to the DB is there any good reporting interface that runs on Linux.  Could be similar to Crystal Reports.  Web based would be great.

I want to give people the ability to write their own reports.  Problem is that we have almost 20 tables with id's and mappings so to generate a meaningful report requires complex SQL to join tables and to cull out other stuff.

&gt; MySQL offers two tools that may get you there: MySQL Administrator and 
&gt; MySQL Query Browser. They are separate programs. For my money, I would

&gt; I've been using it off and on for about six years. It's easy to use 
&gt; and and it's rock solid reliable. That counts for more than the convenience of a GUI, in my book.
