Hi Jerra,

of course this is possible. Oracle provides a Case tool called Oracle Designer (it is probably a little bit oversized for this task) which can handle this. On the other hand you will find all the information about the database objects in the data dictionary views (all_tables, all_objects, all_indexes, all_constraints ....)

Hope it helps
Karsten
