Actually I'm working with ERwin 4.0 in several projects. Sorrily they
introduced new bugs, that didn't happen in 3.5.2. So I had a lot of
mail traffic with CA support. Since CA swallowed Platinum, development
of the tool seems to have slowed down...
ERwin 4.0 has more capabilities to make pretty pictures than 3.5.2, so
I would go with the newer version. On the other side, 4.0 doesn't
support many 8.1 and even 8.0 features (IOTs, compressed indexes,
deferrable constraints etc.).
What I really appreciate about the tool are it reverse engineering and
script generating capabilities.
