Hello,

I would like to generate a merise representation (or simply a database representation) from an existing SQL server 2005 database. Is it possible in SQL Server management Studio Express ? Or is there any other tools or plugin to do this ?

Regards,

mathmax

a merise representation or simply a schema representing the tables, their fields (with types) and relations between tables.

No just a diagram representing the tables and their relations. Isn't there a such feature in SQL server management studio express ?

Database diagram folder should do the trick. It's not very detailed but it's roughly what I need.
