I've been using SQLYog Enterprise for years now. Absolutely love it.

For me, it's the same class of quality tools as Doug Hennig's Stonefield

Database Toolkit is for my VFP databases, and Rick Schummer's ViewEditor

is for my views database management.

In my opinion, these are MUST HAVES if you're working with the

respective technologies (MySQL, VFP free or dbc tables, VFP views

databases). And I am NOT a paid spokesperson for any of them! :-)
