QBE Anywhere Else?

[BNPMike]

Access Query By Example is brilliant, and can get you through lengthy office tasks without resorting to a single line of code. Using SQL without worrying about syntax is great, but being able to automatically get grids to manipulate your data is like Xmas coming every Friday.

The problem is Access and Jet cannot be used in a number of situations so what other similar packages are you aware of?

What type of situtations are you referring to? That would help tailor the answer. There is SQL server (express), and other free database applications. There are big enterprise level solutions, etc. Need to provide some specifics for your situation.

There is something like the QBE grid in SQL Server Management Studio.

I'd be thinking in terms of building web sites where I can query databases and paste the SQL. Jet is problemmatic for this kind of application.
