I have been looking for something to aid in database design for some time, and I came accress Kexi and I was pretty impressed with some of the features and ease of use.
Kexi is a database management application. It can be used for creating databases, inserting data, performing queries, and processing data. Forms can be created to provide a custom interface to your data. All database objects – tables, queries and forms – are stored in the database, making it easy to share data and design.
Kexi is part of the KOffice productivity suite for the K Desktop Environment.
In addition to storing your Kexi databases in files, Kexi can also store your data on a database server. Using a database server allows you to share your database with other people, and also allows more than one person to use the database at one time. Kexi supports MySQL, Postgresql, and SQLite databases.
I am going to so some more testing with it to see how robust it really is. I will let you know what I find
