An update on xmlDig. It's moving along very nicely. We opted for a mix of the two GUIs, a tabbed GUI with some floating dialogs (for the SQL Tree and Messages window, but the tabs don't float). We've been testing SELECT statements against MS SQL Server, Oracle and Access, and will release a public beta with SELECT support. We need to do more for the other SQL commands, but that's a good start.

Here are some screenshots to wet your appetite:

Nestable queries, notice how the Order Details has a :OrderID parameter. xmlDig searches the parent result set for this field to use in child queries.


Results come in two flavors, XML text (shown here), and a Treelist of Node/Value pairs (in the tab).

Keep your eyes open for a public beta, starting this month.
