Kean,

Start the RON.
Right click on "Global Shared WorkArea" - select "Create Child/Application
System.
Within the Application, create an Oracle Database.
Create the User.

Start the Design Editor.
Click on the "DB Admin" Tab.
Select "Generate|Capture Design of|Server Model" from the menu.
Enter the Source of Design Capture as your database and enter the connect
information.
Select the Target Container and Capture Implementations Into via the
drop-down.

Reverse Engineer the items separately in the following order:

Roles
Users (You can create these users by hand if you want to).
Tablespaces
Tables
Views
PL/SQL stuff (triggers, Procs & Packages).

Triggers will come automatically of you selected the option on the capture
window.  A new diagram will be automatically created for you - but it is
slower.  I usually create my diagrams by hand.

This is not a trivial task.  Capturing the tables can take a long time.  But
once you do it, keeping it up to date is not a big deal.

Good Luck!

Tom
