Newbies yeldarb Posted March 21, 2016 Newbies Share Posted March 21, 2016 I'm an absolute FMP newbie I have a table called 'artists' and another called 'contacts'. And I have a layout with a portal listing that artist's contacts However.. In real life, each 'contact' can be linked to many 'artists'. E.G one guy might manage three bands I would really appreciate any of you pointing me in the right direction of allowing a 'contact' to be linked to many 'artists' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doughemi Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 You have a many-to many relationship between Artists and Contacts (many artists can have many contacts). You need a join table Artist_Contact between them. Artist::id >----< Artist_Contact::Artist ID Artist_Contact::ContactID >------< Contact::ID Make your portal based on Artist_Contact, and include the relevant fields from Contacts in the portal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies yeldarb Posted March 21, 2016 Author Newbies Share Posted March 21, 2016 That comment was clearer to me than anything I've read on Google about this today. I've done that but the portal is blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
