Default Export ERD to SQL Server

Dear Mike,

It was possible in an older version of Visio. Check this link out which says
Visio 2000 Enterprise can do it using the "Generate Database Wizard.

http://www.win.tue.nl/~rp/visio/2mdb/

In another place it is said "Visio 2002 for Access Database Developers" can
do it.

http://www.skandus.com/visio.htm

On an other note I have seen done this this in a book called "Absolute
Beginner’s Guide to Databases By John V. Petersen" in which the it is done by
using Visio. However the book fails to mention the Visio version. On
extensive search the version may be by seeing the pic in the book Visio Pro
Technical.

Visio has

1 - Visio 2000 (6.0; Standard, Professional, Technical, Enterprise)
2 - Visio for Enterprise Architects 2003 (VEA 2003) (based on Visio 2002) IN
Visual Studio .NET 2003 Enterprise Architect
3 - Office Visio for Enterprise Architects 2005 (VEA 2005) (based on Visio
2003) IN
Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite &
Visual Studio 2005 Team Architect

It is imposible to find any of these. I have been searching for 1 week now.
Still i am trying. If i find the version I will e-mail you.

I have been looking for this and can only find the EA version in the visual
Studio Enterprise Architect but finding the visio that goes along with it is
almost impossible, if you happen to find this please let me know I am having
to recreate an entire infastructure by hand and it is taking forever.

Thanks

Hi All,

Did you guys get the answer? I am trying to do the same thing in Access and
All I get is everthing but the tables/views/relationships. Is it called
forward engineering? If enterprise Architect which version? Is it stand alone
or with Visual Studio Net? Please see my Other topic. We could do it in a
very old version.

Regards

I am using 2007 Pro and have been searching for the EA version for a whole

several people that you can do this and have even seen it in action, but
cannot find this anywhere.
