I have a column that holds a password..i want to do is simply mask the password with the standard password character (*) or Simply hide...
Thanks in advance....

LOL, This is not possible. You can't modify the way Management Studio shows a table!
However, usually, you don't store passwords in DDBB, but the hash.
See this:

You have to use the Hashing Method,read this article (specific to MySQL)

Both are free and can be used offline. Do you have any specific requirements for what the software can do?

I want to populate some data to use in my Rails app. However I cannot decide which of data generator is the best for me.
I want to fast and clean generator. It should create plenty of data as well.
I have 3 of them, random_data, forger and faker.
Which one is the best? Can you share you experience?
My choice is ffaker. It's quite fast and maintained by Emmanuel.

I choose the search engine for large project. Sunspot I liked, at least from the fact that we no need to run a cron job to reindex the data. But when I saw this http://www.vijedi.net/2010/ruby-full-text-search-performance-thinking-sphinx-vs-sunspot-solr/ I began to doubt.
It depends on user preference, so there's no straightforward answer. Maybe you could go through pros and cons of each one and decide for yourself?

I got following question on an interview:
Which SQL mechanisms allow user to browse tables sequentially?
Cursor is a good example - but I don't think you could really argue that Cursors are truely a part of SQL - rather they just tend to come bolted in with procedural languages used on database servers - like pl/SQL and T-SQL.
You could also make an argument for Recordsets, Dynasets, DataTables and DataViews, but those aren't part of SQL itself either.
They might be referring to ORDER BY with a sequential field on the table, but if so, they've not phrased their question very well...

"CURSOR" might be the word that you should google for.

is there any free SQL formatter tool? I am using http://www.sqlinform.com/ for small queries. It is very good. But free version supports only 100 lines. TORA has the feature but it has many issues and I can not customize everything. Any free Eclipse plugins for this?
SQL Developer from Oracle is free, supports multiple databases (not just Oracle), and lets you configure how SQL is formatted.
e-texteditor have a snippet can do this.
