I use ER/Win for everything, but it is very pricey and it does not
support PostgreSQL directly (only indirectly via ODBC).

Postgres Newsgroup,

My company has been looking for a good database modelling tool for
postgres and have yet to find something that completely satisfies our
needs. We are currently using a product called DBWrench which is pretty
good and has all the features we are looking for but is full of bugs and
creates much head ache.

For example, this tool doesn't realize that in postgres you can't add a
column and set not null in one ALTER TABLE statement. So we are forced
to manually comb through the SQL scripts it creates and fix the buggy
statements.

So my question is, postgres general newsgroup, what database modelling
tools do you use? Open source or commercial it doesn't matter to me.

Thank you,

Mark
