SYMPTOMS
When you use the Reverse Engineer Wizard to add several tables from a database to a drawing in Microsoft Office Visio 2007, the links between tables are not automatically added.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs if the following conditions are true:
 * You add linked tables in sequence to the drawing.
 * You added a table that has a foreign key to a different table before you added the linked table.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, perform one of the following actions:
 * Add all tables to the drawing at the same time.
 * Add tables that have foreign keys only after their dependant tables have been added to the drawing.
