[ANN] - Seeking Beta Testers

[Pete]

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for volunteering.  Just to clarify, this is a database
administration tool (create tables, indexes, triggers, etc) with some basic
data editing capabilities, not a end user/developer's tool.

Just mentioning that since you brought up the amount of code you're having
to write to do simple SQL stuff.  I've been there myself and the result is
the LiquidSQL product I mentioned in the email.  That won't be out for a
few more weeks but it will eliminate a large amount of the code normally
necessary to deal with SQL stuff in LiveCode.

If you want to go ahead and check out SQLAdmin, I'd be happy to have you as
a beta tester but just making sure there's no misunderstandings about what
the product does.  I'm putting the finishing touches to the packaging and
installation right now and expect to point people to a download within the
next couple of days

Thanks,
Pete
