There's also a tool from Embarcadero called ER Studio, which is my personal
recommendation at the moment. I used to recommend ERWin, but then CA
bought it and it has only been lackadaisically maintained since then.
I think there are others...basically any decent ER modelling tool (and
Visio is NOT that) can usually reverse engineer from the data dictionary.
Now, if you don't have your foreign key constraints defined in the
database, you're pretty much out of luck... :-)

Please respond to
ORACLE-L
Magesh,
You could use either of the following tools to build your ERD through
reverse engineering.
1. Oracle Designer
2. ERWIN
In my company we use both the above products. I personally prefer using
Oracle Designer due to many reasons (My reasons are irrelevant here for the
purpose of answering your question).
If it is one time job, then you could download either of the products free
(Please check whether you could do reverse engineering with a free
downloaded version).
