 The objective is to replace the query designer of access with a similar tool. This is because access have known liminations with the size of the MDB files that make it inadequate for running enteprise-size or huge databases.  The objective is to replace the query designer of access with a similar tool.

 +===== Conclusions =====
  
-===== My notes =====+I have to conclude that there is no winner at all. The tool I was searching need to allow the migration of data between databases, permit to connect with existing Access databases and allow to store the results of a query in a new table. 
  
-I've search in codeplex, google and sourceforge for the most suitable products. And in the next section I've put those that more or less appear to be "active", to satisfy the needs of users without great knowledge of technology and focused in getting results instead of getting an sql made. +This last point, the storing of the data in a new query, where the most disapointing, because I didn't found a tool that could achieve this. This could be because a match between the different data types is needed and no one can guarantee that it will work in any case.  
 + 
 +Solutions??? My boss have told me that the solution should come from an [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extract,_transform,_load|ETL tool]] (Extraction, Transform and Load). I will look over three possible tools:  
 + 
 +  * Power Center 
 +  * Data Stage 
 +  * [[http://kettle.pentaho.com/|Pentaho Kettle Project]]
