                                            | john writes "hi!I am using WIN XP-PROF, sql-2000. I stuck with a problem.I designed tables like the ones below ..Personal Details tableMemberID    Name          Tel      Fax 1           Karthik      0201...   1240..2           Watson       02081..   1245..3           Andrew       343...    3444.......and so on for ten more members (say).and other table goes like this Selected Credits tableCreditID   Title         Director    Description1        Band Aid 20    Karthik     60mins Documentary.Channel 42        Cosmic Relief  Karthik     60mins Documentary.BBC TV3...4...5...6...This is a CV design page of directors. Now each candidate can enter as many selected credits as they like say maximum 6 or 7.So if karthik has directed 6 films (say)and Watson has directed 5 films (say) and so on the rest . My Question is how should i relate each person with his own selected credits. I need to display his CV with all his selected credits and personal details. I need to do for 50 people like that . I cant relate them in any way to extract the information of single person. Are there any ideas to solve this problem. I would really appreciate your help thanks in advance.John  " |  |

                                          | I'm not sure I understand the problem but...  If each row of the selectedCredits table can only belong to 1 MemberID then you could add MemberID (as a foreign key) to the SelectedCredits table.If 1 row of the selectedCredits table can belong to more than one MemberID then you will need an association table ie: MemberCredit (memberid, creditid)Is that what you're looking for?EDIT:As far as your "problem with relationships", join the club.Be One with the OptimizerTG |
