There are a lot of applications out there and I have tried a few but I generally stick to QA. However is there any specific functionality you are looking for?

Also where did you see it was no longer supported as I don't see anything to this effect on their sight.

SQL Navigator tech. support told me they are no longer building it for SQL Navigator and they are stopping support of it.

Here is what my research found:

DBArtisan

Huh, did they say if they are replacing it with something else? Anyway I have not tried any of those but may when I have more time.

No, they said they were not happy with the SQL Navigator product for SQL Server.

I guess it was designed for Oracle and did not port well.

I used DBArtisan and RapidSQL a couple years ago. Nice products, but nothing special over QA. The SourceSafe integration was kind of fuzzy. I used EditPlus for ASP/HTML, and I have used it for disconnected T-SQL, but it wasn't a great replacement.

I use QA, though I long for intellisense for object names! Possibly in Yukon.
