All you need to do is install mysql 5 in any box, run the dump script, then execute one query: SELECT LOWER(table_name) AS 'Table', LOWER(column_name) AS 'Column', ordinal_position As 'Ordinal Position', column_default AS 'Default', UPPER(data_type) AS 'Type', character_maximum_length AS 'Max Len', character_octet_length AS 'Octet Len', numeric_precision AS 'Precision', numeric_scale AS 'Numeric Scale', is_nullable AS 'Null', character_set_name AS 'Character Set', collation_name AS 'Collation' FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_schema = 'yourdbname' ORDER BY table_name,'Ordinal Position'; and there are all your tables with all their columns. Absent a modelling tool, there's not a quicker way to get that info.
