This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit VSTA-I-1757 Updated Vista Database Diagrams & searchable.
If would be great if the PDF versions of the Viewpoint database entity relationship diagrams (ERD) were produced so that they were searchable. These documents are key resources for many reporting, analytics and integration needs and having the ability to quickly search for a specific term, tablename, column name would greatly help in the process.

While I agree that finding data across the 100's of Vista tables can be challenging, the data model diagrams (accessible from the Customer Portal) plus the VA Viewpoint View Columns report (#930) can certainly help. Consider searching from the Crystal report viewer or exporting to a .pdf and then searching.
