Hello,
I from Taiwan( If my grammar is fail. Please help me !

I use Multi-Model Report to Generating Data Dictionary Document. Make a New Multi-Model Report. In the "First section" choose your model in "Model name". I choose none in "Report templates". The clear Report items on the screen. If only to cater for your need. Can click right key on 'Table\Table Column list'(Available items) and choose "Add".

You like to see FieldName, Length, Type, Description. My Description is in Comment. On the Report items you can find "Table Column list - Column list of the table ...". Click right key choose "Layout". Check then "E" on Name, Length, Data Type, Comment. Use up-down to sort. OK !
