Hi, guys. i tried to create a diagram for a database in SQL Server 2005.

After creating the diagram, there were no relationships indicated among the data. Why did this happen?

I've tried to create the diagrams on 2000 version with same database, it did list out all the relationships but why not 2005?

i've just tried it in SSMS for AdventureWorks db and the relationships are added with no problem.

Do you have the relationships defined in your 2005 db verion?

try the AdventureWorks db and see if it works for you.

hmmm.... I tried on the master database. It cant work. I read the online tutorials, the AdventureWorks db needs to be installed separately due to some security aspects. This is a really tedious job to do. >.<

installing adwentureWorks is simple. just run the MSI and attach the db.
