I have seen Object Vision which is a graphical front end for Oracle which runs under windows. The oracle server can be running anywhere, all it needs is to be running SQL*Server.

Development can be from drag and drop to writing embed SQL commands. I watched a demo where the user developed a complete report with subtotals, and groups, by doing everything with a mouse and dragging the fields where he wanted them on the paper. Their tool has some built in stuff that will move data down to an Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet was set up with a button that it would allow you to change data in the spreadsheet and then send it back to the Oracle table.

I spoke to someone that consults for a fortune 500 and they chose Power Builder, which is supposed to be more powerful.

I am told that the Gupta product is also a possible choice. From what I have heard, I want to get a demo.
