How do I change one 2 many - many 2 one

[Jalz]

Hi Guys,

Im working on a new project, and for once I've decided to sit down and plan out my database on paper before creating it in FMA8.

Ive attached a very basic sample of my relationships. In the diagram you can see the relationship:

subjobs------

How do I reverse it so that I can have

subjobs>------status

Thanks as always

Add a Status field to Subjobs and relate Subjobs::Status = Status::StatusName.

The Status table may not be necessary if StatusName is the only field (and it's not the source of a value list.) You could keep the interface for looking up Jobs by Status in a layout based on the Jobs table, and use a global gStatus as the parent key to relate to Subjobs.

Thanks Ender

Thats sorted it.
