I'm doing this as we speak.
Question. Do you have Oracle?
In my case, I don't...we're an SQL shop and I was asked to document
some Oracle databases so we can integrate our application to their
database. Therefore, I'm using Embarcadero's ER/Studio to document
the database from the database's script files.
If I had Oracle installed, I'd be using an application called
Document!X. It reads Oracle 9i databases and I love the output.
Note: These are not shareware. They are both very "muscular" applications.
