Is there a Toad type application for Sybase? I can't seem to find a single one! I've tried using VS 2008 but can't see the sproc source.

Am assuming Sybase ASE.

Ships with Sybase Central and SQL Advantage as part of the client tools. Sybase Central lets you manage and create tables, views, sprocs etc. SQL Advantage lets you run SQL...

Sybase Workspace is a new tool for ASE, I've never tried it. http://www.sybase.com/products/modelingdevelopment/workspace

ASE ISQL is a free tool that is also useful for running sql, but is less useful for modifiying stored procedures etc. (More of a SQL Advantage replacement). http://code.google.com/p/aseisql/

If you have money to spend then there's also Embarcadero's DBArtisan. http://www.embarcadero.com/products/dbartisan. I've used this and it's pretty good, although their support for MSSQL and Oracle is better than the Sybase support.

+1  A: 

SqlDbx at http://www.sqldbx.com/. Very light-weight software promising a lot of editor features. This requires Sybase Open Client to be installed on your workstation.

But I'll recommend using Oracle SQL Developer. I'm presently working through a JDBC connection to a Sybase ASE database using this tool. This seems to be Eclipse-based, but is quite responsive and allows you to view source code for functions and procs too.
