I gave DBdesigner a bit of a test reverse engineering a fairly decent size database I am working on and it kept crashing after loading a bunch of the tables, seemed that i might have exceeded a limit of it handling large database structures. The schema has 470 tables in it

That wont stop me using it as it seems to do a very nice diagram ran it against the 9i HR schema to see what it can do Now all i have top do is work out how to do subsets of the schema

Cheers

Interesting tool, complete with reverse-engineering, and it's GPL'd.  I'd
really like it if it did crow's foot, though.  But the website does say to
use the big ER tools for conceptual modeling.
