Newbie Question -- Can I create Data Models for Custom Objects ?

Hi,

 

Before I moved to Salesforce I used to create Data Models, sometimes by reverse engineering.

 

These Data Models were very useful.

 

Is there a Data Modelling Tool for Salesforce or is there a way I can create Data Models for SF Objects or Custom Objects ?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Barry

I am looking for the same kind of tool too. Especially, if we can extract the custom object relationships from salesforce and put them into a visual representation that would be great.

 

If someone has the answer PLEASE post it on this thread.

 

Thank you

All the needed schema info is exposed in the API, tools like SoqlX can show you an erd/graphical view of your schema. see http://www.pocketsoap.com/osx/soqlx/

Thanks Simon. Graphical representation is only available in SoqlXplorer which is a Mac version. Do you know if anything like this tool (with graphical representation of objects) is available for Windows OS.

 

Thank you
