I’m using PowerDesigner 9.5.2.920 EBF 6 and have been
assigned
the task of reverse engineering a Teradata database.

I presume that an ODBC data source is needed to reverse
engineer this database, but when I looked in the list of
drivers, I
didn’t see one specific for Teradata.

Does anyone have any idea what driver I should use to create
my
data source to connect to the Teradata and where I should
get it
from?

Any help is appreciated.

If you do not have an ODBC driver available, the alternative would be to
work from SQL DDL script. Can your teradata console dump the db schemaas
create and alter table statements?

Were you able to reverse engineer the scripts?
If you need additional help, just post back here.
