Documenting database model diagram

Hi,

I've created typical database model diagram in Visio 2003 EA and need to
document it properly. Where can I put field descriptions and is there any
way to export diagram to any type of document or print report out.

Thanks in advance.

In Visio 2002 EA, you can double-click the Entity shape and there is a
"Notes" tab to put note descriptions.
There are also Note tabs for the fields as well.

Click on Database \ Report to generate a text report of the database model.

Thanks Ronnie for pointing me to Database/Report. I was looking at
Tools/Report. Also I did not noticed the last Notes tab on column properties
when you click Edit column in db properties. As for exporting diagram, the
XL spreadsheet format would be the ideal, but rtf doc might work for me as
well.
Best regards,
IK
