Database structure documentation tool

I have been asked to include the database structure of our application in the help. It doesn't look as though there is a tool within RH that will do this but I thought it was worth asking in case it's hidden away somewhere.
If not, there are plenty of tools out there that will do the job but are there any that will integrate best with my RH7 chm and webhelp output?
Thanks

Hi there
No, there really isn't a tool in RoboHelp that will facilitate that. If you try a different tool you might ensure it outputs HTML files. You would then import the HTML files into a RoboHelp project.
Cheers... Rick

  • ERD & Database documentation tool

    Hello All:
    I am looking for a ERD & Database documentation tool for documenting my Databases. The tool should ideally do the following.
    1. ERD
    2. Database Documentation
    3. Capability to do reverse engineering
    I want to evaluate Oracle Designer, Ervin and the one from TOAD. Please let me know some other good tool that I should evaluate. Thank you so much.
    -- BMP

    Do the following:
    SELECT DISTINCT object_type
    FROM all_objects;
    SELECT DISTINCT index_type
    FROM all_indexesIf you see anything that isn't vanilla stick with Oracle Designer.

  • Automatic Checking of Database Structures

    In OSS note 521870 SAP recommends to perform a weekly
    check of the Database Structures to verify that the
    Maxdb database is not corrupt. Unfortunately this
    OSS note only describes the manual procedure to
    perform this task:
    dbmgui -> Check -> Database Structure
    Is there any way to easily schedule this also via dbmcli?
    The SAP online documentation contains some interesting
    information about integrating the check into the CCMS,
    here I can see whether the database structure check
    was performed recently, but unfortunately I cannot
    schedule it
    http://dev.mysql.com/doc/maxdb/en/30/5ada6e596211d4aa83006094b92fad/content.htm
    All I can find here is to schedule it via DB13,
    but unfortunately my SCM 4.1 system is running on
    Oracle and I want to check the liveCache on Maxdb,
    so I cannot use DB13 for scheduling the check.

    Hello Mark,
    Central DBA Planning Calendar ::
    In the user menu, choose the Central DBA Planning Calendar
    (transaction DB13C).
    If it is not already there, add your liveCache to the list of systems.
    To do this, choose Configuration ® Add System.
    System ID: Enter here the liveCache name that you assigned during the
    integration of the liveCache (using MaxDB/liveCache System Overview).
    Database: Choose SDB/LVC.
    Database Release: Choose the liveCache Version in accordance with the      
     version notation .
    Select No SAP Basis.
    Database Server: Enter the name of the liveCache server.
    Connection Name: Enter the name of the database connection.
    To switch to a local DBA planning calendar, choose Local Calendar and then
    select the system for which you want to edit actions.
    Please also review the SAP notes 940420, 521870 ( you already know this note ).
    And note 820824 FAQ: MaxDB to find the note for the documentation & more -
    For SAP liveCache documentation in English:

  • Update the database structure from entity Framework Model

    Hello !
    I'm using VB.net , EF6 with SQL server 2008R2 database.
    This is the situation :
    I have created the application. Using wizard I have created the Entity model from an existing database.
    A client start using this application using this database on his computer.
    After some month , I made some modifications on the database and I have updated the model on my application .
    Now I have a new .exe file that has the new model from the new database.
    I put the new .exe file on the client computer.
    Now on his computer : The .exe file has the new database model , but the sql server database has the old structure.
    I want to know : Is possible to update the database structure from the entity model on application ?
    I want to add a command on application that can make ( if is possible ) this update , so the database become up to date according to entity model ?
    Thank you !

    Hello,
    From your description, it seems that you want to apply a migration for a database first approach, unfortunately, as far as I know, EF Migrations is a product targeted at Code First and doesn't support Database First operations. A workaround I know is to
    use update-scripts. If your database structure would be changed frequently, it is recommended to use the Code First approach which would have a better workaround for migrations, for details, you could refer to this
    video,
     and with the
    Entity Framework Power Tools, it is easy to create a code first based project form an existing database.

  • Oracle Vision Database Structure

    Hello guys
    Does anybody know where I can find the Oracle Vision Database Structure? I don't want the installation documentation. I just want a document that shows the Database Structure.
    Thanks for all your help.

    Hi
    plese explain Youre question
    Do You want to get DDL-statement to recreate objects ?
    The space which You allocated for database is reserved and marked on blocks.
    Free bloks doesn't belong to a reserve of an empty space of operating system .
    I think if You whant to get size of the absolutely empty database
    You need to calculate sizes of minimum necessary files in tablespaces SYSTEM, SYSAUX, Redo-files, control files , password- and controlfiles
    or shrinking every table to a minimum space, move HWM and then calculate the size that Youre database occupy

  • Cool Oracle Documentation Tool - Its free!

    I found this tool online and I think its great for Oracle developers (especially new ones).
    It s a java program that allows you to create HTML page documentation for an Oracle schema (it supports 9i and 10g I think).
    I found it very helpful in being able to browse schema objects while writing code - and its works in every OS!
    Its not quite as robust as TOAD but this tool just creates the docs. And they are al linked with an index and stuff. Oh, and did I mention it runs on Mac OSX??? cool.....
    I downloaded it from www.sqlscribe.com. They dont have much of a site but the link works.

    I am looking for Oracle's CASE tool suite for free download like other Oracle softwares. Also the related documentation.
    Can anyone tell me the site address.Right now Oracle has 3 official 'case' tools.
    Oracle Designer is part of the Developer Suite (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/designer/index.html) is extremely comprehensive, but few bother to learn it properly and many seem to think it is "not best neither ...".
    Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/datamodeler/index.html) is the new one, an offshoot of SQL Developer.
    Oracle JDeveloper has a built-in UML tool as well as other visualization and documentations tools (especially related to SOA and BPEL), and given that JDeveloper is free that makes this variant the least cost of the three.
    There are a lot of other CASE tools on the market, and which one is 'best' depends a lot on what you are trying to accomplish.
    For Oracle tools, Oracle Designer is very good if your development platform is ORacle Forms. The built-ins in JDeveloper are excellent if you concentrate on Java, JEE and JDeveloper.
    If yo want more discussion around the Oracle tools, go to the appropriate forum.

  • Message: "The database structure has been modified" every time I log to SAP

    Hello,
    "The database structure has been modified. In order to resume this process, all open windows will be closed". Every time I log to one of my companies in SAP Business One this message appears.
    I haven't installed any new addons and made no changes in database structure (and any other user hasn't done any changes), but this message appears always when I log to company for the first time (when I try to log on another user or log to another company there is no message). Can anyone help me with this problem?

  • The Database Structure Has Been Modified

    Good Day!
    Just want to ask what is the probable reason why upon using SAP, there is a system message " The database structure has been modified. In order to resume the process, all open windows will be closed. Continue?"  Even upon user log in , this system message appear affecting other user's data entry. Upon adding of the document (of other users when this system message appear), all the UDFs are missing, causing their data entry to be inaccurate since you cannot update row level once the document has been added.
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Thanks

    Hello ...
    This error message appears every time that has altered the structure of the database, either by creating a new field of user or user table, so it is inevitable that appear the same.
    Now, it is necessary as a measure, to control who has access to make these changes, and that they are made without users.
    I hope it will help
    Best regards,

  • The database structure has been modified - how to check if it happend?

    Hello,
    I have a question. How to check if the database structure has been modified? I know that there is shown a messagebox after creating table and adding some fields, but sometimes this message appear after some seconds. The problem is that I want to create table and UDO for this table, and until database structure is not modified I got an error message. If I wait and DB strucuture modifies then UDO is creating correctly.
    My question is - does anyone know how to check if database structure has been modified?
    Regards,
    Hmg

    Hi Szymon,
    I guess you are stuck up in a kinda scenario, where in, you will be populating a form with values, before the structure modifies, if this is going to be your problem, I can help you out with a work around.
    In the beginning of the process, before the creation of the UDO or tables, set a boolean value to false, and once all UDO's and Tables are created, only then, should you make it true and only after the boolean becomes true, you should proceed with populating the values from the screen.
    I really ament sure what your problem is, but one of my guys faced this problem, I then, thought even you might have a similar problem.

  • Is it possible to change selection screen of logical database structure?

    I have to create a z report for a standard transaction FBL01N which is extracting data according to the vendor account number(LIFNR) at the selection screen. Now as per the requirement the system should extract details according to 'vendor name' keeping the same functionality.
    But the standard program is using some logical database structure KDB and the include for the selection screen is DBKDFSEL.So can I modify the selection screen of this transaction replacing Vendor No with Vendor Name.

  • Use same report with same database structure to different database server.

    Hi,
    I have standard crystal reports which needs to be copied to another database server.
    The origin database has exactly same database structure with the data base in other server.
    My only question is how to change the connection of the crystal report file from old database server to new one without affecting the linked tables in the report. Would it be possible?
    Note: origin database and new database has same structure, tables and columns but differ in data on it. and both has different server. (MS SQL)
    Thanks,

    Hi Mark,
    Open the report in the CR Designer > select Database option on the top > select Set Datasource location.
    The pane on the top shows the current connection. Go ahead and create a new connection to the target database from the pane at the bottom. Once created, highlight one table from the top, highlight the corresponding table from the bottom pane and click Update. Do this for each table.

  • SQL server database structure

     
    Is it possible to create an 'XML file' from a SQ Server 2008R2 database structure?

    You could query the information from DMVs (sys.columns, sys.tables etc) and use the FOR XML PATH() clause to create xml file of the data.
