How do I create a DDL Script to capture the schema of an existing Database

Asked by Prysson in MySQL

Tags: MySQL

Im new to MySQL and Im trying to get my bearing on the basic tools.

Trying to generate a DDL to import into the workbench (don't know why the workbench cant just connect to a database and generater one itself...seems like a fairly obvious usage)

Be that as it may I cant seem to figure out how to accomplish this or at least there doesnt seem to be a basic gui option to generate it so I assum I probably have to run some kind of command...

What would the correct command be..or am I wrong and is there an easy way in the basic tool sets to generate this DDL script.

I am using the 5.0 my sql tools
