A guide to the use of ER<-->a visual data modeling tool that supports logical and physical data modeling. The program supports the design of large, complex enterprise models by dividing them into smaller more manageable subject areas which allows multiple views of the same subject area. After describing the basics of modeling concepts and the program, the author explains how to use ER to create a logical model that represents necessary information requirements and business rules. Finally the use of database administration for developing physical models is explained. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
