Subject:Graphical diagram of database structure?
View as plain text  
Hi,

I am doing a test implementation of an open-source web-based Electronic
Library Reserves project (http://timesync.gmu.edu/OSCR/) which uses Mysql.
Following the script provided I've created 3 tables (no data yet). Now our
senior person, who is versed in MS Access 97 & MS SQL, wants to look at
the structure. Is there a way to either

 a) get a pretty chart of the tables with arrows showing key
relationships, like MS Access's "Tools | Relationships ..." menu? or,

 b) take a file of sql statements (a script to create the tables in Mysql)
and input that into MS Access to create an identically-structured
database?

If not, what's the next-best way to generate a listing of tables/fields
that I can print out for him?

Thanks; I hope this isn't a FAQ, but I couldn't find anything in the
manual.html about this.
