How do you create your web site data admin for your customers. Do you do them programatically or do you use any specific tool?

I have been using AspMaker and is not a bad option but I'm sure there are a few more options out there. I've seen that MS has a Web Data Administrator but for me it looks more than an sql server web admin tool rather than a frontend that has the business logic.

Most data I deal with usually has some sort of custom business logic, so we normally roll our own administration pages. Using tools like you mention will probably give you simple access to data rows that you will then probably need to customize to suit your business logic. It might give you a head start though, especially if you're crunched for time.

I'm agrew with you, from developer's view I prefer to implemenent my own content manager, but basicaly what my customers need is an easy way to add new data items and it's relations with some sort of categories and obiously, time is always a problem. Aspmaker, for instance, let you create an admin for tables with an html editor, can upload images, files... and all is set up in less than a morning.
