OSQL vs Enterprise Manager

Can I say that osql is a cmd-line utility of GUI
Enterprise Manager?
Would you please list the Pros and Cons of them?
Thanks!
Hi,
With OSQL you can do all the TSQL commands, but you have to type in your
commands, where as in Enterprise manager you could do all the tasks by mouse
click. I recommend you to use either Query analyzer or OSQL, this will
increase your knowledge.
FYI, We can not say any pros and cons...between both of them
One disadvantage in Enterprise manager:
If you add a column in a table, EM will unload the data , script the table,
change it to new and load the data back. Where as OSQL .. ALTER Table
command just
adds the column directly into the table.
Thanks
