It has been a long time for me to look for a free (better if open source), user friendly and powerful ERD editor. Most of the foundings are trial version, limited version, non-open source, or not so user friendly.
But this week, it seems God wants to give me a gift - DB Designer 4, which is an open source, user friend and powerful DB designing tool. It support connections to various data sources, e.g. MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle and ODBC, execution of queries, reverse engineering on db design, forward engineering by applying the change in db design or generating SQL script. You're also allowed to export the diagram in to PNG or BMP, which would be useful for documentation while some other tool doesn't export any graphics...
