Hi,

I am trying to generate a diagram of tables and a relationships of an existing SQL 2000 database. What is the best way to accomplish this ...I would appreciate your help."Diagrams" option in Enterprise Manager shows no items.

Thanks

Gary,

I've not done this with SQL2000 so cant make any guarantee's however I have used Microsoft VISO in the past which has a 'reverse engineer' feature and will diagram a database for you.

Last time I checked you can download a Trial version to get you going.

I will try that and see.

Thanks a bunch!

In SQL Server 2005 (and 2008) you just right click on Diagrams and then create a new diagram.
