What do other people use to model their database? Hi, I use DbDesigner http://www.fabforce.net/dbdesigner4/. It has some bugs but at all it's a great graphical designing tool. And it's free. -- "Use the force - read the source" Piotr Duszynski mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
