Is there a document detailing the design of the database?

Basically I want to create a custom front end app to do certain admin features to my products that are specific to my needs (using MS Access wth an ODBC connection).

To do this safely I need to understand the design of the database.

For example, in examining the tables, I see in VKatrisProductsVersions that I could have 6 entries for a particular product however the entries appear identical in every way.

eg:

P_ID P_OrderVersionsBy P_VersionsSortDirection P_VersionDisplayType P_Type T_Taxrate CAT_ID LANG_ID P_Live CAT_Live V_Live V_ID V_Name V_Desc V_CodeNumber V_Price V_Tax V_Weight V_DeliveryTime V_Quantity V_QuantityWarnLevel V_DownLoadInfo V_DownloadType V_RRP V_OrderByValue V_Type V_CustomerGroupID P_Name P_Desc P_StrapLine P_PageTitle P_Featured P_SupplierID P_CustomerGroupID P_Reviews P_AverageRating P_DateCreated V_CustomizationType V_CustomizationDesc V_CustomizationCost T_TaxRate2 CAT_CustomerGroupID

Does anyone have any information on where to go to learn more about the DB design (eg a doc explaining what each table is for and how it is used). Someone designed it right? I don't want to break my DB.

Cheers
