mazman13 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I'm looking for an offline Database program...(i guess kinda like access) But at the same time I would like it to be able to update or export to a mySQL database. I wanted to see if there was something (freeware) out there like that before I created some user interface so people at the company can update it. I'd rather not spend that time making that. Heck, it doesn't even have to store an offline database. It can just be online. But I'd like a program with a pretty clean interface so they can use it on thier desktop/client side.

F1Fan Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Have you tried MySQL Admin? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126649-solved-anyone-know-of-a-good-client-side-database-program/#findComment-654928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barand Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I'd give the user Query Browser rather than the Admin program Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126649-solved-anyone-know-of-a-good-client-side-database-program/#findComment-654964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barand Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Have you looked at MySQL Query Browser? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126649-solved-anyone-know-of-a-good-client-side-database-program/#findComment-655063 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazman13 Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 I looked at it for a sec. Would the user be able to add tables and change the database n' stuff like that? Or would you be able to set permissions?

Barand Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Yes to the first bits. For permissions you would use MySQL Administrator, which is why I wouldn't give it to users. In fact, now you mention adding tables, I think even Query Browser could be too powerful for users (as you can add/drop tables/databases) unless you screw down the db permissions (or if you are abdicating all responsibility and you don't mind receiving an email from a user saying "Oops. I just deleted the customer and sales database and it says it's irreversible") Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126649-solved-anyone-know-of-a-good-client-side-database-program/#findComment-655165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazman13 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 Yeah, I might just have to make one. It sounds like that might be the best way. I was trying to find an easy way out of it. Thanks!
