Not only does this appear to be no longer being developed (last updates are
2002), but I've had the unfortunate experience of actually having to use it
on a recent project. It's bug ridden, and a nightmare to have to use.

Most frustrating is the inability to be able to export a script (such as for
creating or altering tables, or indexes) from SQL EM or SMSS and run it in
ASP.NET EM - every time I've done this it does nothing.

Making changes to tables is painful - it took me a while to work out that
all the errors I got due to existing _temp tables was because it has a
problem when there is a PK on the table, I had to untick the PK and save,
then make the changes and save, then tick the PK again and save.

I'm in the process of trying to get the host using ASP.NET EM to install
Visual WebGUI Enterprise Manager
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/vwg-ent-man) which looks to pretty much
replicate SQL EM, and is the only other SQL web admin I've come across since
trying to find a replacement for ASP.NET EM.

But how do I then get that db structure change onto the remote server? I was
developing a database for a client - their hosting provider only has this
ASP.NET EM to allow access to the SQL database, so as changes are made to my
local IIS and SQL setup (all testing is done on my own systems prior to
uploading to the client's site) there was no way I could get them onto the
remote SQL Server other than via this ASP.NET EM ...

I'm hoping that as the client I'm working for has a few dedicated servers
with the host that they might be able to swing this.

Which as I said, I tried and failed miserably, it just ignored the commands
I'd exported from EM/SMSS. I had no trouble with modifying data, but the
structure changes wouldn't work using T-SQL.

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the right place.

I understand there is a tool called MSDE web admin which is supposely a =
web based version of our fav MS SQL GUI tools. But that requires =
installation.

The reason im asking this is because currently we are doing a project in =
which client's IT side do not allow remote connection into their MS SQL =
server due to security concerns.

Problem is whenever we develop scripts/apps for them, we have to send =
the raw scripts and stored proc via email.

Whenever there are any bug fixes or column changes, we have to resend =
the changes to them and they have to alter the objects again.

So, I'm thinking whether are there any phpmyadmin clones which I can =
simply upload to the web server and do the data modifications/ column =
modifications / sp modifications ourselves.

I was using the ASP.NET EM with a couple of hosting providers (was
installed by default) and had no big problems with it... A lack of
export could be a problem (I agree), however, from my opinion all
changes in the db-structure should be done on your local/development
server.

Visual WebGUI Enterprise Manager looks good, I need to try it.

But there is just one(?) snag

Quote: "The VEM requires ".wgx" script map to be registered in IIS."
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=33510&group_id=168612

which in most cases cannot be done on remote server

Eric: why don't you make a simple ASPX-page with just a text field and
submit button. Using that page you can execute any script (assuming
you have a dbo access) against the database.

Using SQL-query window

CREATE TABLE...
ALTER TABLE...
etc.

Ah, I think, I remember it. There was an annoying problem in EM, it
returned no error when a query was wrong, or an execution has failed.
