How do you document a DTS package? I cannot figure out how to print it, with all its parameters, code etc...
Where is it all stored?
Would be very useful.
Hi Folks,
I am new to this list server and have a dumb question. Does anybody know of any software that will document table/attributes very similiar to sp_help?? Basically, what I am looking for is some fancy documentor for tables very much like the one with access.
Thanks...
Is there any way to print a report with column name, datatype, size, etc in a report under SQL Server 6.5. I am looking for something
like the Documenter which is available with Access 97. Karen Suenram
Hi folks,
I'm so sure this is a clueless newbie question, I'm embarrassed to be asking it. The short version of my question is, "What's the best path to generating printed documentation of my SQL 2005 database?" The long version follows...
I've just completed the first draft of my new SQL database design (using Management Studio). We were previously storing our data in seven (yes, seven) separate Access databases, now I have everything set up quite nicely in one SQL db, all nice and relational and with proper field sizes and naming conventions, etc. It's all beautiful, but now I need to document it.
Why wasn't it documented first and then built? Let's just say I inherited this task in mid-stream with a looming deadline. Yes, I would have liked to follow a different workflow, but it is what it is and I am where I am.
So I can go through every table and type up everything in Word, but I'm hoping there's some feature in Management Studio that will give me a head start. I read the Help file under "documenting databases," and it says you can output the metadata as and XMLA script. Sadly, it doesn't actually tell you how to do this, which is rather unhelpful.
I'd like to end up with a document that list all my tables, with field definitions, indexes, keys, and triggers. Is there an easier way to get there than going table-to-table and typing it all out?
Thanks,

Is there a way to quickly document all tables and views a DTS package uses? Is there any system table/view which will hold this information?
For one of our projects we need to document these objects so that the client could remove unused objects from the db. There are 20 + DTS packages to go through.
Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
I'm fairly new to a DBA role, I've been tasked with documenting all the SQL servers/databases. Is there anywhere on the Web where I could find a standard list of what needs to be documented. Any help/advice would be appreciated.

I have a large number of SPs that I would like to be able to document and provide this documentation to prospective clients. That is, provide them enough information without giving them the source code for the procedures.
I have found that all the parameters are in the sys.parameters table.
But I was wondering. Are the fields that are sent back out of an SP captured and recorded somewhere in the SQL Server catalog?
Is there an easy way to find out what fields are coming out of an SP?
Thanks in Advance

Hi all
I would like to select transforms in a package and paste them as jpeg or similar into word or powerpoint in order to allow me to create a separate set of documentation.
However, whenever I copy some transformations and jump to word, the copy buffer is empty.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I am looking for an easy way to document the specifications of my tables, views, etc. In MS Access, one could use the "Documenter" utility to print out field names, data types, field sizes, and comments. Does SQL Server 2000 have a similar utility?
If not...
1. Why not? This would seem to be very useful.
2. What is the recommended way to document database specifications?
My ultimate goal is to develop an administration manual for our database.
Please note: I looked at the database designer diagram utility which is great for visually representing the relationships between tables. However, I am looking for a utility that will print out the field names, data types, field sizes and comments related to the fields.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks :)
Does anyone have any scripts, or know of any tools, that can scan through all of the SPs that I have inherited, documenting details?
Thx
As part of a project documentation I want to list out the fields of all the tables to say Excel to plug in a description of the field and other notes.
Is there a tool in EM that would facilitate? Or, is there a utility that would work or a SQL script? Any recommendations is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter
What is the best way of documenting SSIS packages?I am not interested in purchasing any software, any general template that covers the key information of any SSIS package that should be defined and documented.
