Graphic representation of Categories

I once saw a representation of the Categories in Revit and their relations to one-another.
I think it was a Table/Query overview of the Categories in an Access database.
@Andrew_Hannell, maybe you know what i mean?
(i need to explain something, and a picture say more than a thousand words)

This?

The link from @SeanP looks pretty good

Yes, you can export raw data to an Access database using the ODBC exporter- but it is only one notch above complete gibberish.
I might have dressed it up using something like PowerBI in a dashboard showing vital stats, categories etc for a model

Nope, that’s not it, but thanks anyway.
I meant something like Figure 5 in this publication.
BIMdatabase.pdf (991.2 KB)

@Marcel_Rijsmus yes- the ODBC export looks something like that
I’m not sure if it works out relationships between tables (the lines joining keys), but you certainly get the tables

I’m not doing any Revit stuff at the moment, so don’t have a licence- but it is fairly straightforward to export if you have 64 bit Access to go with the 64 bit Revit
