You can try using GT::SQL::Table and GT::SQL::Editor. I've never tried altering properties with Editor, but I"ve used it (and GT::SQL::Creator) numerous times for adding fields and tables. I find it much safer to automate the def file updates than to manually key them in. I actually prefer writing scripts most of the time than to use a visual database manager.
