topic can't export an xml file from a personal geodatabase (using Arc Catalog). in Data Management Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/can-t-export-an-xml-file-from-a-personal/m-p/760123#M42709 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I was excited to find out through forums about the ArcGIS Diagrammer program, it seems to be what I need to help with presenting schema information.
