Automatically? Don't know. I did it by hand using Dia, a free alternative to MS Visio. It was tedious.

I've spent the last month building a fairly elaborate database with lots of foreign keys.

I want to draw a diagram that maps the relationships between all the tables, but I haven't found any software that can do that.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I want to draw a picture with a box for each table with links to all the other tables.

TIA
