MySQL tools which ease creation of SQL JOIN statements?

Does anyone know tools which look at a MySQL database, show you all the tables graphically and allow you to create complicated JOIN statements via drag-and-drop?

A: 

EMS SQL Manager for MySQL has query constructor. Can't recall about joins, but they should be supported.

Before you buy anything, see if the free, official MySQL's GUI tools (specifically the MySQL Query Browser) will work for you.

Personally, I'm fairly comfortable interacting with MySQL's command line interface and haven't used their GUI tools very much, but I just downloaded Query Browser and it seems like it does exactly what you're looking for.

Also, check out "Building Queries Visually in MySQL Query Browser" for a nice tour of MySQL Query Browser.
