Retrieve database Schema...

Hi everybody,

I am trying to find a way to export automatically an entire database schema
into an .xsd
A graphical way is to drag & drop the tables from Server Connection into an
empty .xsd file.
My problem is that the xsd does not include info concerning the
relationships between database tables.
Is there an automated way to retrieve programmaticall y the entire db schema
into a single xsd file?

In VB6.0 i could use a very useful method of ADODB.Connectio n...the
OpenSchema from which i could retrieve
much metadata info such as Tables, Columns & column properties, Primary &
Foreign keys etc....
How can i retrieve the same info using the .NET framework????

Thanks in advance for your help
Dimitris

XML seems so much more intuitive to me, though. Anyway, let me make up an example: Say we have an address book, in XML format, that is to be uploaded by a customer and then mapped into relational database tables. I would start by creating an XML Schema...

The ETL application loaded around 3000 rows in 14 seconds in a Development database while it took 2 hours to load in a UAT database. UAT db is partitioned.
