    <p>Anne, as of right now, I typically use Visio, althought that is not a great tool for doing things quick and easy, as it is a pain to use for the most part.</p> <p>I dont know if you are interested but there is a preview coming out soon for Visual Studio 2010 that should contain some "Oslo" bits that will help in building your User stories, UML Diagrams, etc. all within the same tool, and allow you to map several ideas together in interesting ways. </p> <p>I have read up from the PDC 2008 docs/casts about using their new Domain Language "M" for defining Models for your domain and allowing you to build out SQL to support your models etc. It seems from at least what I can tell a full fledged Architecting set of tools.It seems you really dont need to use .NET to take advantage of it, its just the code that could be generated will not do you much good if its not for .NET, but the Use Case Diagrams,Activity Diagrams, User Stories, Flowcharting, Process Diagrams, aspects could still be very usable for any project. The "M" DSL could also help you model out your entities and get SQL to use from one tool.</p> <p>As I said earlier, I dont know how useful this information is to you for several reasons. 1) Its not out yet, 2) Its a Visual Studio thing (as far as I know), 3) some of its advantages are fully realized in a .NET Framework.</p> <p>However, that being said, there is still tons of things it can do even if you dont use .NET and the Preview of this stuff should all be coming out soon (which should be free). Unfortunately, this doesnt do you any good right now.But if you are like me, you are constantly looking to see what is coming out, to see how it will impact what you do today and what you could do tomorrow. So at least its useful in that regard :).</p>

    1. COThat sounds very promising and the additional capability to build out SQL support would be a dream. I'll definitely keep a lookout for the release.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
