looking for a tool/ middleware tool which...

Hi all.

I'm looking for a tool which should act like some kind of middleware/
logical layer bewtween the SQL server and the webbased user interface.

- It should be possible to easily create simple web forms (only data
input and output) without programming effort by "clicking" the fields
and their order on the web mask within an admnistrative interface.

- It should also be bossible to add "new fields" to the database,
including field type, permissions, value lists etc. (excluding any
business logic) without programming effort by administration.

I know, that most workflow tools or "Trouble Ticket Tools", based on
databases have this feature to easily configure new masks and add new
fields to the database, but i need it as an tool-unspecific layer for
the MS SQL Server.

Thank you very much for your feedback, any ideas are welcome!

Best regards, Heiko.

Re: looking for a tool/ middleware tool which...

This is SOMEWHAT similar to some of the things you are trying to
streamline:

For a "quick and dirty" generic ASP open source solution to putting
databases on the Web (often works well for the admin area of a Web site
which doesn't need to look too unique) that just requires setting up a
configuration page for each table or query and uploading the database to
the Web as long as there is an autonumber field in each table (and
you'll probably also separately want to create login capabilities),
perhaps try something like this:

example
