在使用PowerDesigner对数据库进行概念模型和物理模型设计时，一般在Name或Comment中写中文，在Code中写英文。Name用来显示，Code对应数据库中的列名，Comment中的文字会保存到数据库Table或Column的Comment中，当Name已经存在的时候，再写一次 Comment很麻烦，可以使用以下代码来解决这个问题。 另外在使用REVERSE ENGINEER从数据库反向生成PDM的时候，PDM中的表的Name和Code事实上都是Code，为了把Name替换为数据库中Table或Column的中文Comment，可以使用以下脚本。
将Name中的内容复制至Comment中

以上两段代码都是VB脚本，在PowerDesigner中使用方法为： PowerDesigner->Tools->Execute Commands->Edit/Run Scripts 将代码Copy进去执行就可以了，是对整个CDM或PDM进行操作
