I'd personally recommend Embarcadero's ER/Studio for database design. It has way better features than Visio, for it is specific...
http://www.embarcadero.com/products/erstudio/index.asp I believe Sybase and Oracle also have good database design tools... Looks like Adalon though is a pretty cool wireframe app... I may have to try that out myself... -----Original Message----- From: Jim Campbell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 11, 2003 9:39 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CF Application Design With Visio Enterprise, you can create ER diagrams and forward-engineer database tables with all their relationships defined. Regular Visio will only reverse-engineer Access and SQL-Server databases, but that can be a big help if you need a graphical representation. I'm not sure if you can just bolt onto anything through ODBC, though.
