I have a Visio datamodel that I'd like to export into DDL code for Oracle so I can run it manually to create my database objects. How do I get this information? I can't even figure out how to save the table description to excel.

    Visio once had the capability you're asking about -- but it's been gone for at least 15 years.

    There is an open source project that claims to export database definition from Visio: https://www.sqlbi.com/tools/visio-forward-engineer/

    I haven't used it so I can't verify whether or not it works but if you are willing to work with the open source code, it might get you closer.
