Thread: ADO Explorer - Problems with displaying columns

ADO Explorer - Problems with displaying columns Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

At the Sage Summit I kept hearing about ADO Explorer and I've downloaded it and been working with it. I like it a lot. I love that I can work through the provider.

However whenever I try to open the Columns view or use the SQL Builder tool it fails. "List index out of bounds (-1)". Anyone else run into this and know a fix?

I'm also curious what other tools are being used in this manner. I have to go through the provider so my changes will sync out.

I don't use ADO Explorer myself. I use a much simpler (and open source C#) tool called QueryExpress. Grab it from http://www.albahari.com/queryexpress.html All I really want is a quick and simple tool to run queries via the provider. This does just that and has some great threading code so it runs quickly. Since it is open source, I've added a new tab to my login screen specific to SLX logins.

Ryan,

I'll give that one a try. What I like about ADO Explorer (if I can get it to work) is the SQL Builder. I'm not, by any means, a SQL expert so I like using the visual (Access like) SQL building tools. They help me make sure my statements are accurate (even if they aren't the most efficient) and minimize syntax errors. They are generally a lot smarter than me when it comes to queries.
