How to create a record in database other then main?

[MacDigger]

Here's a problem:

I have 2 databases, one main, and other supporting database. Main database holds information on different "things", supporting database is supposed to hold history about each "thing" in main database. In a simplified way - supporting database contains fields: id, date, place (the meaning is where each "thing" with 'id' was at a 'date')

What I need to do is, while browsing the main database, create a new record in supporting database with specified info (date, place), for selected "thing" with 'id'.

I just started learning FM, so I'm a big curious if it is possible at all to do this kind of thing (I do believe it IS possible). So, any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Mike

The easiest way to perform this is to have a portal in main that views the related records in your support database and allow creation of records in the relationship. Then you will find a blank row in each portal where you can input information to create a new record in the support database.
