What about M-n, 1-1, or 1-m relationships?

If sql was wanted sql would have been requested.
Actually excel can be used.
One table on a worksheet so you have six worksheets at the end.
details for each table on each worksheet.
Show relationships by inserting links which when activated take a tester to
the related table.

can get you very close to them. However, if you don?t absolutely require a
graphical representation, I would suggest representing the database design
with a text-based notation.

this? So far, I have used plant uml. However, it is slow and somewhat
problematic because it renders itself useless for database design. If there
is something different, I will consider using it since there is no longer
time to experiment with preprocessing, and a simple 6 table database
shouldn't have to take 1 week of design work to finish.
