Actually, there is a product made by Runtime Labs, which I use quite
extensively called MacSQL. You can get it here:
http://www.rtlabs.com/
It works great and includes support for: Oracle, Sybase, MySQL,
OpenBase, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and FrontBase. I use this
primarily (95% of the time) with MySQL databases, but have been very
happy when using it with other databases. Sorry, there is nothing to
show visual relationships between tables. As far as I know there is
nothing out there that does for the Mac OS X. You would need to
maintain that elsewhere...perhaps in something like OmniGraffle. We use
this at work when doing initial schema design and updates, so as long
as you don't mind keeping multiple files up-to-date, this isn't a bad
workaround. Good Luck.
