New to FileMaker Question

[fosterhw]

I have many years experience in other databases, but  just getting started in Filemaker.  I am looking into the relationship graph and I see a lot of duplicated tables that I don't see in the tables list.   Are these "virtual" tables?

 

Thanks.

What you see in the relationship graph are table occurrences. Representations of tables. The RG is not an ERD.

The "true" table listing can be found in Manage Database>Tables

Thanks!   I have more learning ahead of me

No, they are the same table, used to create relationships to other tables. 

Here is the link to the Help for Relationshiops
