Hi folks,

i wish to draw up some database schemas. Eg, table 1 has zero to many rows in table 2, etc.

It's purely for visual purposes (eg. no sql code, etc).

Are there any online tools / website that offer this?

(please don't say: Use Sql Server Database Diagrams, print screen, upload to image hosting service).

thanks :)

EDIT:

Please take note of the keyword -> ONLINE. I don't want any desktop solutions (because I already have one of these).

A UML Class diagram (with the method box concealed) is a nice database schema diagram. You can use Argo UML to draw a class diagram for your schema. Save it as PNG and upload it.

This is not an ONLINE solution, AFAIK.

Or JUDE Community edition, if you want to go that way.

@Pure.Krome - My recommendation might not be what you want, either. I misinterpreted "on-line".

What about this tool:

http://www.dbschemaeditor.com/OnlineDB.aspx

DB Schema Editor is a free RIA Web application that will let you design Database Schemas and generate scripts for SQL Server, My SQL, Postgre SQL, SQLite, Firebird and Oracle directly from your Browser.
