From what I gather, there is no supported way to do this in CASE 5.0. I have heard about some scripts out there which basically take each table and make it an entity and then take each column and make it an attribute. There needs to be some more smarts in these though to put all of the foreign keys in their place etc. I'd like to see this as well. Let you know if I come across anything.
