SQL Express is installed on the machines that I'm going to, but I'm not going to install the clunky SQL Management Studio. I just want an EXE I can run, so preferably I'd like it to be install-less.

Current options are:

1) Write one myself - not too hard, but I thought I'd check here first 2) Use the command line

Requirements:

1) Browse databases I point it at 2) Run SQL commands 3) Show output of SQL commands 4) Easily view table contents

There most certainly is. I found this a while back and I think it's great: MiniSqlQuery
