I can only support Richard's comments. I have been applying Oracle*Method in conjunction with the CASE tool for over 2 years now and have no serious plroblems wiht it. Unfortunately I do not know Topcase so cannot answer the original question, but to me the disussion seems to be evolving similarly to arguments I have had regarding other tools of the ilk. The main theme becomes: do you simply want a schema generator for an application or a tool where you can define your business. Both have their justifications but should not be confused with each other.

It is true to say that schema diagramming is not well supported in Oracle*CASE today, but jungle rumour has it that Oracle is implementing a Schema Diagrammer in the next release of CASE.
