Question

I have a SQL Database. I would create an ER diagram in Gliffy (site). Gliffy only imports files from Microsoft Visio. So I don't how to export my DB from SQL Server in Visio to create the diagram there and importing the same into Gliffy.

Any ideas? There are other tools I can use to do this?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Visio professional (except Visio 2013) has a "reverse engineer" feature. You can use it to create a diagram of your existing SQL Server database. See here for example:

Reverse engineering an existing database

Reverse and forward engineering databases in Visio 2010

OTHER TIPS

First import the SQL schema from DB to Visio. Then export the file and import in Gliffy.

That's all.
