Access does? The last time I had to use it was about 3 years ago 
(thankfully), but I remember some kind of visual query builder where you 
click and select columns you want and then drag to create relations. It 
was actually quite the PITA for someone who knows SQL, as it would have 
been faster for me to type out the queries by hand.
