We are pleased to announce the availability of the first SQL Visualizer beta.

Phase 1 is primarily aimed at SQL Server 2000, but should run correctly with SQL Server 2005, and contains basic querying functionality, object views, and scripting.

Other key features include:

• Syntax highlighting
• Snippets and collapsible code regions
• Execute queries across multiple servers
• Visualize result text including addition useful information
• Visualize XML
• Graphically visualize the amount of space used on a server
• Graphically visualize the amount of used and unused space in database files
• Search for database objects across multiple servers
• Script database objects the way you want them to be scripted
• Script table data
• Print query results

Please feel free to download a copy and let us know of any bugs you find or any comments you have.

Obviously, at this stage there is plenty of functionality still to come, but we hope you find this release interesting and useful.
