Entity model diagram from ddl

Hi,
We use db2 8.2.6 on Windows 2000.
Can you suggest DB2 tools available to generate entity-relation ship diagram from the data base DDLs.

Thanks

IBM Rational Data Architect. Not really a "DB2 tool", but it is an IBM product.

Just about any ERD tool will do that. You can download some of them for a 14 day free trial (such as ER/Studio and PowerDesigner). But they will cost you about $3500 to purchase.

There is a fairly cheap tool that supports DB2 (most of the cheap ones do not) at this website. Despite its name, it is not bad.
