I didn't think about that; excellent idea. Although I will always be concerned that the tool - having to get "inside" the database - might damage or change something. I guess I can always make a backup before applying a tool. Thank you for your suggestion.

Or creating a script of the DB should be sufficient for someone to review (if necessary) what is in the database? If you are using an approach of external file documentation, what specific parts of the database do you document?
