Hello from a bit of a newby



I have been through the archives and seen the Oracle vs SQLServer and
dont want to start up another fight but....



I am going through some costing analysis of a database for out small
organisation.  I have come down to Syabse ASE, Oracle 9i or SQL Server
2000.



From what I can tell SQL server, out of the box, contains all manor of
design and profiling tools whereas if I want to design and create an
Oracle (or Sybase) database then I need to purchace either Oracle
Designer or Sybase Power Designer.  I was even told by the Sybase
sales chap that I dont even get the DDL with the ASE server, I imagine
that the same will be said when the Oracle people get back to me.



My problem is that these developer packs are the only thing that is
pushing Oracle and Sybase out of my budget, and I would rather run the
database on UNIX than NT.
