Speaking of LINQ, Caber Computing offers a beta for a product called SqlTac which hopes to do several interesting things. First it attempts to provide a graphical representation of the “soundness” or efficiency of your db. Secondly it allows you to cretae  versioned set of scripts plus a test database containing – you guessed it – test data. Seems like an interesting idea. There are aspects of this tool that are better done by other products. For example dependency analysis is done extremely well by SQL Clean. But this looks promising for the always present need to document and standardize the db.
