SQL Server Management Studio alternatives to browse/edit tables and run queries [closed]

I've started using LinqPad. In addition to being more lightweight than SSMS, you can also practice writing LINQ queries- way more fun than boring old TSQL!


Seems that no one mentioned Query Express (http://www.albahari.com/queryexpress.aspx) and a fork Query ExPlus (also link at the bottom of http://www.albahari.com/queryexpress.aspx)

BTW. First URL is the home page of Joseph Albahari who is the author of LINQPad (check out this killer tool)


TOAD for MS SQL looks pretty good. I've never used it personally but I have used Quest's other products and they're solid.
