If you don't mind spending a little money and are on Windows, you can use Microsoft Visio Professional.

I have been request to create a relational database map that can be

entering all that by hand. Nor do I relish the idea of sitting down
and writing one a program to automaticly do it if there one

Does anyone have a utility to map out database structures and put it
in a printable format ? PDF, GIF, JPG, etc.

Try DBVisualizer at <http://www.minq.se/>.

There's also AutoDoc http://www.rbt.ca/autodoc/index.html which can output to a dia-compatible format.
