Gerry,
You are correct. I opened Visio, under the Database menu item there is a
reverse engineer option which uses ODBC.
Has anyone ever done this for an Image database? Is so, can you publish or
e-mail me a copy of the output. I would be interested in seeing what type of
output can be generated "automatically".
Thanks,
-Craig
