Thanks for your email. I snipped your reply a bit. My priority is just to find the diagramming tool. Generating SQL, though very convenient, it not a necessity. I actually would be using this for come various current and future projects (so that means a variety of db) so that is why the SQL generation is not a necessary. I like Datanamic's Dezign because it actualy supports a lot of different databases for SQL generation (it runs on windows and costs $300). I'll look into dia and see if I can find it on my redhat 8 cd's. -Ben -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
