Reordering columns in the table display on a wide (ie lots of big columns) table is a bit difficult because the grid doesn't scroll when you reach the left margin. You have to drop the column, scroll the grid, get the column and move to the margin again. Took me 5 goes to get the column where I wanted it.

I'll see what I can do, but the limitation is in the VCL in the older Delphi
versions.  We're having to use a header control combined with a DBGrid with
its headers turned off in order to make the whole thing look decent on XP
and Vista.  I might end up just making the EDB Manager only compilable under
Delphi 2009, which has a lot of visual improvements of this nature.

Go the whole hog and buy some pretty controls

I'm still trying to keep the utilities so that they can be customized by the
end developer without having to purchase anything else.

If its only going to be compilable in D2009 I'd guess you've cut a lot out anyway - certainly me.
