>>Hi... I'm looking for a tool (prefereably free) to export schema and
auto-generate a documentation framework from an existing MySQL database.
At a minimum I'd need a basic data dictionary, and diagrams would be
nice. Hopefully in a nice HTML framework for documentation.

I use Toad to browse my database and ERwin to generate HTML and PDF
documentation. I use Oracle, so I don't know if ERwin is compatible with
MySQL. Computer Associates makes ERwin.

>>Does anybody have experience with DBDesigner? Can it do what I am
looking for?

No, sorry.
