<H4><A name="2.3">2.3</A>) Does PostgreSQL have a graphical user

Yes, there are several graphical interfaces to PostgreSQL available.
These include PgAccess <a href="http://www.pgaccess.com">
http://www.pgaccess.com</a>), PgAdmin II (<a
href="http://www.pgadmin.org">http://www.pgadmin.org</a>,
Win32-only), RHDB Admin (<a

</a>) and Rekall (<a href="http://www.thekompany.com/products/rekall/">
http://www.thekompany.com/products/rekall/</a>, proprietary). There is
also PHPPgAdmin (<a href="http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/">
http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/ </a>), a web-based interface to
PostgreSQL.
<P>We have a nice graphical user interface called PgAccess which can
also be used as a report generator. The Web page is
<A href="http://www.pgaccess.org/">http://www.pgaccess.org/</A>.</P>
<P>We also include <I>ecpg</I>, which is an embedded SQL query
language interface for C.</P>
