I usually use MS Visio - the basic version contains all you'd need to do ER diagrams and it's not very expensive - though not as cheap as shareware. If you're using SQL2K (not sure about v7) you can get it to auto generate the ERD from the existing tables/relationships, but that doesn't help if you're at the design stage ;-)
