Very basic data frontend

Hello members,

I'm looking for a very basic GUI frontend for PostgreSQL databases which should allow non-tech users to add and edit data to existing database objects.

It shouldn't allow any modification of objects or other DB Admin stuff which could potentially wreck the database.

I ruled out pgWorkbench (SQL only), and admin tools like pgAdmin3, Navicat, etc. MS Access shouldn't be the option.

Could someone point me into the right direction?

OpenOffice.org base as the front end, connected to the postgresql back end via ODBC?

"solved"

I found three interesting tools which allow me to generate a frontend for underlying tables:
  • PostgreSQL PHP Generator 7.10
  • DaDaBik
  • gedafe

Eventually I used the free PHP Generator to build an interface which can be easily customized and even password-protected.
