Sybase Schema Model with mapped relations

Question

I want to create schema model with mapped relations of Sybase database.

Database based on SQL Anywhere 9.

• What's the best method?
• Could I generate schema model "on the fly" based on database structure with some auto scan?
• Or I should create it manually?
• What software I should use, some dedicated by Sybase or some another tool?
• Once when I will create this schema model, how to easy keep it updated?

I need this schema model, to keep better documentation of the database, because actual database structure is very complicated and database is very very huge.
