SQL Documentation Tool for SQL Server 8.0

The SQL Documentation Tool is a complete database documentor solution for Microsoft SQL Server databases. It automatically creates comprehensive technical documentation reports for databases, saving valuable developer time and money.

Reports are created in HTML [sample], Microsoft's HTML Help [sample], RTF [sample] and text [sample] formats. Color coded, syntax highlighted copies of the Transact SQL associated with stored procedures, functions and views are included with the reports. The compiled HTML Help reports includes an index and search facility.

Version 8.0 offers the following updates:

  • Added a Check for Updates menu command to the GUI (not visible in the evaluation version).

  • Decreased font size in RTF report to 10 point.

  • Added a new project option: Include MS_Description in RTF. If checked then
    the RTF format report incorporates the table, view, stored procedure and function descriptions from the databases that have been documented.

  • RTF report now indicates if the database does not contain any stored procedures or
    functions.

  • Fixed a minor issue with the progress bar which was affecting the documentation of empty
    databases.

  • Improved the extraction of Function descriptions from SQL Server 2005's MS_Description fields.

Changes in version 9.2 of the .NET Documentation Tool are:
  • Improved the documentation of namespaces.

  • There is a new DisplayParentFolderName configuration option (shown as "Display Parent Folder Name" in the GUI). If selected, this option causes the .NET Documentation Tool to include the folder name of files being documented in the documentation. This option improves the display of documentation for projects that span multiple folder locations. For example, if a project was located in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\SalesWebsite and C:\components\Web\CommonComponents, the .NET Documentation Tool will create top level folder names of "SalesWebsite" and "CommonComponents" within the documentation. This is particularly beneficial for the HTML Help formatted output. It also makes it more straightforward to document your entire code library and compile it into a single, searchable HTML Help file.

  • Improved regular expression pattern matching error handling.

  • Improved spacing of links in bottom right hand frame of HTML report.

  • Revised help: added SQL Server 2005 sample connection string, added DisplayMethods to table of contents, added DisplayParentFolderName to the list of configuration options.
