How can I in workbrench export the whole database schema (create table) to a
file ?

Thanks

Sorry, don't know. But I would ask whether that's the right tool for the
job. You can use mysqldump to dump the schema to a file - I know its
normally used to generate backups (so including data) but there is a switch
to omit the data which should leave you with a script to create the database
schema.

HTH.

It does nothing.
Should I point by mouse on some elements ?

If you open a database and then use that application function, it
should work. What does "it does nothing" mean? Do you get an error
message? An empty output file? Something else?

And what version of Workbench are you using?

MySql WorkBench 5.2.16 OSS Beta.
I have installed it on Windows-7.

It does nothing (I see the CTRL-SHIFT-G) :
I click on it on the menu, but no window commet, no error commet, and the
menu isn't close.
It looks like a bug in WorkBench.

Oh, please!!


Well, I'm sorry, but I can't be of any help, then.
I use 5.1.16 OSS (final) on XP and W7, and that version works as
expected.

It is disabled.
I am on database -> query database (on top menu)
Then stands on the left on one of my schema (the node under it is table).
Do : file -> export

The choice is disabled.

and then I see that every choice is at a disable state :
Forward engineer create sql script
Forward engineer create alter script
Synchronized with sql script
etc ...
