You can add buttons into the Administration tool for execution of your custom tools. Hereby, you will get a single place for an administration of ObjectGears instances. You can pass information about currently selected instance (name and connection string) to your scripts and programmes. Therefore, you do not need to manage logon to all your instances for each of your utilities. Everything is maintained in a single place without unnecessary duplicities.
