Hi All,

This is more of a general SQL database question than a MySQL question, but
since I use MySQL almost exclusively I thought I would ask here.

Up until now, when designing a database, I always plotted out the
relationships on paper, with pen/pencil.  I've filled large pieces of paper
with all the tables and their relationships.  However, now I will be doing
one of these large projects, and the client wants to see how I propose to do
all the relationships.  I would like to have something more professional
than a 24"x36' piece of paper with my scribblings all over it.

This has been quite good enough for me, although it is decidedly low-tech.
I've seen commercial applications that allow you to do this sort of thing,
but I do not have much of a budget.

I am wondering if anyone can direct me to a free program that allows me to
do this sort of thing?  I would prefer some sort of client side application
that will allow me to click and create new tables, relationships, and so
forth.  It does not need to actually *do* anything, i.e., it does not need
to create or execute SQL queries.  I just want to model the relationships.

Suggestions?  What do other people use to model their database?

Thanks for any input!

Sincerely,
  -Josh
