When reading extended properties from SQL 2016, modeler doesn't pick up any of the ones with a NULL value and generates an "addproperty" for all of them which comes back and says "property already exists" when ran. I have many extended properties that are set null until we figure out all the values to be populated. I don't understand why this tool is not the same.įirst of all, would like a way for the function to take into account the "generate" flag on each item and only generate scripts for those.Ĭomparing model to SQL 2016. I've used in the past other data modelling tools, power designer data architect and the e/r studio and their dialogs are snappy and fast. It is disruptive to my workflow because I want to make changes quickly. I don't understand why the dialogs aren't snappier. Let's say I want to modify a check constraint. It takes 3 seconds until the Attribute Properties dialog shows up. Now, I go to attributes and double-click on an attribute. It takes 3 seconds until the Entity Properties dialog shows up. Let's say I want to edit the attributes of an entity. It takes a few good seconds until a dialog shows up after clicking on an entity or attribute. I bring it up again because it annoys me greatly and perhaps you can do something about it. Included in the report is a copy of the ER Diagram, where you can click on any individual component to get more details.This is a complaint I've had for a very long time, since the days TDM was owned by the Czech company (the product had another name). The result is a very clean HTML report that you can host on your own intranet and share with your teammates. The Wizard will allow me to customize my report, first by the type of file, type of report, layouts and colors, what to report on, and so on. I can also quickly create a report for this model by going to Model, Generate Report, Report Wizard. Just like that, I have a script that I can run in Oracle to deploy this model to a live database. I'll select Show Preview and click on Generate. This window will allow me to customize my script as needed, but I'll go ahead with the default settings. Now, I can take this model and generate a DDL script by going to Model, Generate DDL Script. In this short video, I'll generate DDL scripts and reports for the sample video rental model included with Toad Data Modeler.
