Good afternoon,
I have an Access Database that I built and it has a huge size. But that is not a concern. The real question is, is there any possible way that the database could be mapped out on its own? Meaning is there anyway I could do to printout the map showing what has been connected to build the select, make, update, delete queries. sort of gives you a full story of the database with the sql narratives. The purpose for this, is to be able to pinpoint the rootcause and be able to correct it. A way to back track what you built. All I want to see is the relationships and SQL nothing else.
What version of Access do you have? I know that Access 2010 has the ability to do this using the Database Documenter. I can't remember what the name of the tab is, but it is right next to the Relationships button.

Spot on Seth. This feature has been available for many versions back to at least 2000. In earlier versions you invoke it from Access using Tools | Analyse | Documenter.
Versions 2007 and 2010 have it on the Database Tools tab in the Analyze sections.
@NeoPa Thanks for that information. I didn't realize that it went back that far.
Thanks Seth and neopa. Sorry been away for vacation. Thanks will check it out tomorrow morning. :)
Just to let you know, if you plan on printing the report, just check the number of pages first. Even a simple database can be up to 75 pages.

Generally, you can get a great deal out of analysing it with MS Word if you save it in RTF format.
Not too bad. I could deal with this. I did chose the relationship with the SQL for the Queries but it gave me all the SQL. Which is fine, I can work with it. The only thing is that it generated over 180 pages all because of the spaces.. I had to manually cut it down to 75 pages in Word Documents. Thanks, case is closed. :)

Glad that helped. We don't close topics as such, but if you select a Best Answer (Post #2 looks good for that), that indicates the thread is pretty well answered ;-)

I suspect you got the wrong post by mistake, as my post (#3) was only a clarification of the idea that had already been posted in post #2.
I'll reset it for you, but only you can set the Best Answer so may I suggest post #2 again.
