However that isn't much of a price to "pay" for a tool like Toad. I looked at Frog and thought it was horrible. A joke in fact. It's in PB, btw, not Delphi. The interface is simply deplorable as a result. I can't imagine too many sites allowing the use of a such a tool or even one coming from a web page such as they have.
