ER/Studio and RapidSQL by Embarcadero are less expensive then ERWin etc. and quite useful. Demos available at www.embarcadero.com . The free TOAD www.toadsoft.com is indispensible and the commercial version no doubt is even better. SQL Tools www.sequel.nl is fairly affordable also and might be worth a look.
