Hi, I'm a very new user. I have a flat file database that works well but would like to go the next step and automate some processes. I am a stumped with the problem below! I have no experience with relating info. I am trying to develop the dbase so that i can relate an individuals lists of subject (codes) taken and automate the insertion of a field next to it with their corresponding subject name. The database has the following Files & Fields

1. Enrol ID , Name , Subject code 1 , Subject code 2 , Subject code 3 etc

2. Subject code , Subject name, Unit value

Can anybody give me a clue as to what is the best way to relate these files so that i can produce a 3rd file with

Enrol ID, Name, Sub code 1, subject 1 name, sub code 2, subject 2 name etc

Any ideas greatly appreciated,

Also are their any good sources of tutorials for writing scripts or doing calculations either in books or on disk?
