Available notations for ERD in Visio 2003 Pro

[Jim Gordon]

Could anybody tell me what notations are available?
Specifically I need to know if I can use Martin-Odell ("crows feet")
in an ERD. I have just ordered Visio 2003 Pro and now there is some
doubt I will be able to use it.

Thanks in advance for any response,
Jim

Visio's Database Modeling solution does allow you to display foreign key
relationships using crows feet notation. To enable this, create or open a
"Database Model Diagram" (or "ER Source Model" drawing), then from the main
menu, choose Database | Options > Document..., then click on the
Relationship tab and check the Crow's feet check box, and hit OK. This
will cause all relationships of the current diagram to display using the
crows feet notation.

Go into the Database, Options, Document using the dropdown
menu. Then go to Relationship tab and check crows feet. I
don't know why VISIO doesn't have the Martin ( Oracle)
notation available but this is an approximation.
