mySQL diagram tool

Post by salmon »

I'm interested in finding a mysql database diagram tool.

I've exported a database to an .xls file. I'd like to import it into something that will generate a diagram of that database.

I have Visio but it does not do this type of import.

MySQL workbench is an amazing piece of software. It is made just for mysql and can reverse engineer a database into a nice ERD but just supplying he connection info.

Check out fabForce dbDesigner 4. It's a little buggy but overall a very nice program

MySQL Workbench is a visual database design tool that is developed by MySQL. It is the successor application of the DBDesigner4 project.
