Just wondering if anyone knows the pros/cons between creating a database
programmatically vs using the application's tool windows/features that come
with SQLServer, Access, Oracle, etc...
Is it the same? Does it really matter? I have created databases with .NET
programmatically and it works fine, but why would anyone want to do all this
typing when they can easily point and click inside the program?
It took a few hours of typing for me to create the database and all its
tables. I am very certain that if i just point and clicked inside the
program it would've been done in less than an hour. So why do people
programmatically use SQL? Is it only on an as-needed basis or do many people
ALWAYS use this practice because it makes it more efficient/declarative?
