SQL Doc - 2.1
Getting started - SQL Doc
SQL Doc enables you to document Microsoft® SQL Server™ databases in an easy to read web format (.html files), document format (.doc file), or compiled Microsoft® HTML Help (.chm) file.
This is useful, for example, to provide an overview for database administrators and developers who are unfamiliar with your database schemas, or to produce detailed reports for your customers.
You can use SQL Doc to document SQL Server "Denali", SQL Server 2008 and 2008 R2, and SQL Server 2005 databases.
