hi all,
if anybody could direct me to a free DB documentation tool for SQL2K that'll
be great. Since we're running out of budget (usual year end crunch, blah
blah!), we cannot budget for buying any new tool...if anyone also knows diff
tools that could be used within SQL2K, pls suggest in brief how to make use
of it for documenting Tables, Triggers, Relation Diagram and Data Dictionary
TIA

I wrote an article on "DB documentation" last year. I have provided the sql
scripts also. Check out http://www.microsoft.com/india/msdn/articles/169.aspx
whether it would be of any help to you.

Pls be adviced that you might need to change the scripts to adhere to ANSI
Joins if at all you are bothered about performance.

Best Regards
