With previous versions of FM I put different functions into different files but with tables available within a single file, I am thinking about incorporating these functions into a single FM 7 file but in different tables, eg: phone book, check book, notebook etc. These functions would not be related to each other but since they are never going to max out the storage available, I figure, why make up several files when I can just design a single file with several tables. Using tables in this fashion makes field management a bit easier. For a networked solution, is there going to be a problem using multiple tables in a single file that are not related to each other.?

Thanks

No problem with that, except being able to port some parts.

You should think more about if there are ways you can relate the data. It may make sense to build a contact management database that has notes attached to the contacts and a checkbook that uses the contacts as payees.
