Graphical Tools

Microsoft® SQL Server™ includes many graphical utilities that allow users, programmers, and administrators to easily and quickly:

• Administer and configure the parts of SQL Server they control.
• Determine the catalog information in a copy of SQL Server.
• Design and test queries for retrieving data.

In addition to these tools, SQL Server contains many wizards to walk administrators and programmers through the steps needed to perform more complex administrative tasks.
