For an exam about databases, I have to create a (extended) ER model.
I need a good editor, even if in the worst case I could use CorelDraw or EdgeFlow.
I tried with IBMS, but the kind of notation is not what I want.
I refer to the notation that appears for instance in Elmasri-Navathe's book
(with little circles for the attributes, biforcations for generalizations,
double line for weak entity types, etc.).
If anyone can help me, I'll thank him/her very much! :)

For those times when I want to create a quick and dirty ER diagram without
using a real CASE tool, I use Visio (version 4.x). It includes several
templates that have shapes useful for ER diagrams, DFD's, etc.

I use ERWin from Logic Works, and _love_ it. It is much more than a
drawing package. Let me know if you want more details. I think they
have a web site at logicworks.com.
