About MySQL Workbench

MySQL Workbench is a cross-platform, visual database design tool developed by MySQL. It is the highly anticipated successor application of the DBDesigner4 project. MySQL Workbench is available as a native GUI tool on Windows, Linux and OS X in different editions. See the following link for more information about the editions available.

If you are familier with other gui tools like MySQL query browser and mysql administrator, both features are available in workbench. Other is data modeling, there you can create ER diagram.
Three parts of MySQL workbench:

1) SQL development: You can run your database query. very similar to mysql query browser.

2) Data Modeling: You can create ER diagram.

3)Server: very similar to mysql administrator browser. You acan create backup and restore of your database script.

I installed on windows 7 and vista. It was creating problems in XP. Error was .netframework, i tried but did not complete it.

Thanks
