We have a relational database with hundreds of tables. Now we want to create
a design document that provides information such as the relationships between
the tables, the functions of the individual tables, definitions for
specific fields, and considerations when making changes to the relationships
and tables. I haven't come up with any solutions that make me completely
happy. I'm sure someone out there has solved this problem before. :)
Please send any suggestions or the names of any relevant published samples
that I can reference.
Thanks for your help.
