Two standard ways to document a database are to create a relational diagram and a data dictionary.
A relational diagram will display all the tables in a database with links to joining tables utilizing the primary and foreign keys. For a more detailed description visit- http://www.utexas.edu/its/windows/database/datamodeling/dm/erintro.html
A data dictionary is a reference guide of all the tables and fields in a database and the use of each object.
