Not Able To Create A DB Diagram In SQL Server 2005. No Menu Option For Creating A DB Diagram??
I have created a database with several tables. I want to create a database diagram to show the relationshipbetween the tables. Below are the steps from the SQL Server 2005 documentation on how to create a database diagram. The problem is that when I right click on the Database Diagrams folder I am only given two options. They are:"Working with SQL Server diagrams" and "Refresh"There is no menu choice to create a new database diagram. Can anyone tell me what the problem here is? To create a new database diagramIn Object Explorer, right-click the Database Diagrams folder or any diagram in that folder. Choose New Database Diagram on the shortcut menu. The Add Table dialog box appears. Select the required tables in the Tables list and click Add. The tables are displayed graphically in the new database diagram.

Database Diagram
I am working through a book about setting up a database, though i'm doing it slightly differently, using a sql server database on a remote server rather than the local sql server express database shipped with visual studio. everything has been going fine until i've reached a part where they want to add a database diagram to the existing database. they talk about right clicking the database diagram node, and selecting add, but for some reason there is no database diagram node, so i can't do it this way. the book also says using the data>add new>diagram from the menu, but when i do this i either have no diagram option (when i have no table opened) or else the diagram option is greyed out and unselectable (when i have a table opened). any ideas on how i can add a database diagram? dc

Database Diagram
i am trying to create a database diagram but this error appears. what does this mean and what should i do? tnx This database does not have a valid dbo user or you do not have permissions to impersonate the dbo user, so database diagramming is not available. Ensure the dbo account is valid and ensure that you have impersonate permission on the dbo account.

Printing A Database Diagram
All -- Please help. I am having trouble printing a database diagram. When I do, I get junk artifacts on the page on each table, shaded areas that obscure part of the picture. I get these results when I print with Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and when I print to my HP4200N laser printer. Is there a required driver or something? Please advise. (I apologize but this is the only good place I could find for this post-- if you have any hints for other locations then please post links.) Thank you. -- Mark Kamoski

Advantages Of Database Diagram
What is the advantages/disadvantages of using Database Diagram and link all the tables in MS SQL Server Management Studio versus letting the application check and link the different tables at run time? Currently, I do not have all my tables linked in a Database Diagram. I do everything at run time in my application code behind. What are the best practices? Which is easier or perhaps more secure?

No 'Database Diagram' Folder
Hello Forum, I have installed Visual C# 2008 Express Edition along with SQL Server 2005. I'm following some lessons and got to the point where I have created some tables and want to create relationships. The example shows that I should have a 'Database Diagram' folder visible in the Database Explorer section, but is nowhere to be found! Is there something I've missed during installation? Is there a way to get this visible? Thanks, SF

Cannot Open Database Diagram
I attached a SQL express database created on another computer on another SQL express instance running on another computer. When I tried to open a database diagram previously created i receive the following error: "Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects." I must mention that in the attached database the server login is mapped to the databse as db_owner role. So what's the problem ? Any suggestions ? Thanks

Script For Transfering Database Diagram
I've been trying to get the scripts posted earlier to the group byClay Beatty to work properly. Using the three components he posted, Ihave managed to get a new SP generated. However, when I paste thisscrip into a new copy of the original database (different name, samestructure as a test), I get an Invalid Object Name for the temp table#PersistedVariables.Has anyone run into something like this before?
