PL/SQL Developer with Other databases

[oraclelover]

It would be nice if this tool would work with multple datasources. Such as PostgreSQL and Firebird(Interbase open source database), atleast in a limited way. I know the debugger and all wouldn't work without basically makeing a new tool. But if I could run SQL against multiple databases and have code completion work for multiple database and view database objects that would be cool from my point of view. I also understand this tool is made for Oracle I'm just bringing up the idea so don't flame me to death plz. This is by far the best SQL editor I have came across and I have used almost everything under the sun.

It is unsupported, but if you have an ODBC datasource for your database, and install the Oracle Open Client Adapter (OCA) for ODBC, you can connect to any database.

99% of the PL/SQL Developer features won't work though, because they rely on Oracle Dictionary views and PL/SQL, but you may be able to fire your SQL statements. MS Access will be a better choice though
