Database diagrams

Does anyone know if there is a way to export a database diagram from SQL
enterprise manager to either Microsoft visio or any other paint program?
thanx PapaniiHi,
The only way to export them out is via Copy and Paste or you can get a
graphic print driver (Postscript driver) and save the print to a file. Then
you may be able to import it into another program.
There is no option from SQL Sever to do this.

Visio will Build the ERD for you if you point it at your Database.

Database diagram to SQL tables

Dear Ng,

Database design

I just downloaded VS 2005 beta 2 and am learning about the new features and getting acquanted with it.

I used to do all the database design in Visio Enterprise Architect. Is there a replacement for Visio in VS 2005? Or we continue to use visio to model our databases? I want to be able to create a model that I can deploy in not only SQL Server.

Thanks in advance,

MCHi
There is no such replacement for visio in Vs 2005. One can continue to use visio for modelling the db
