DB2 Database Maintenance Product ?

I am just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction, I have a project that requires much more DB2 administration than I have ever had to do, I used to give my tables creates and changes to our in-house AS400 guy and he would do them for me in a green screen interface, then I would do the programming against them.



I cant give him the volume of work I now have, I really don't want to learn a green screen interface, and am looking for a more modern way to maintain my DB2 databases on our AS400.



I tried using the tools built into Visual Studio 2005 after installing the .NET Toolkit from IBM, and it was promising but has some issues I haven't been able to get past, it wont enumerate all my libraries and tables, and we cant figure out why.



Does anyone know of a DDT/SQL Management Studio equivalent product for DB2 administration?



Thank you for your time.

Keith,

The only one that we were even familiar with was the Add-In for Visual Studio.  We will keep our ear to the ground, but I do not know of one. Sorry Ermm

OK thanks, the VS addins work, but are quirky for sure.
