One place I know of is The Development Group for Advanced Technology, Inc.   
They make a very nice PPS-based Smalltalk tool for examining Sybase and Oracle  
database schemas.  Contact Randy Reiter at +1 201-825-9511 for more info. 

I have no affiliation with the company.  I am simply a satisfied customer whose  
comments and suggestions have been welcomed and acted upon by this very  
responsive group.  And yes, I *will* buy from them again.
