Are all the relations specified properly with FK declarations in the DDL, or are you talking about dumping SQL queries during runtime to see what tables are actually being used and joined?

I've written a rather nice table and SP graphing tool that parses DDL. It supports Sybase/SQL Server and MySQL currently, I don't know how close that is to DB2 syntax.

It's not actually released yet, but I could throw a tarball your way if you like.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
