Can you import a Visio 2003 DDL into EA 5.0?

[atewari]

We are at a point where we want to dump MS Visio and use EA5.0 for data modeling and "Code engineer" the DDL into Oracle.  We have the DDL in Visio 2003 and wanted to avoid recreating the DDL in EA 5.0.  Is there a way to import this DDL into EA 5.0?

Thanks!

We did the same exact thing and are very happy we switched to EA.

To get our old data model from Visio, I exported the DDL, ran it against a blank database, and then imported that database into EA. The only thing we didn't get were the comments from Visio because Visio just output them as comments and not associated as metadata in the database.
