Hi, I am doing a favor for a nonprofit organization and building a db for
them in MS Access 2003.
I am clear on the table relationships:
1st one-to-many (1:M) Level: Each [client] has zero or more [questions];
each [question] applies to only one [client].
2nd 1:M Level: Each [question] has zero or more [recommendations] [rec];
each [rec] applies only to one [question]. If a [rec] applies to many
[questions], the [rec] will be repeated.
3nd 1:M Level: *Each [rec] has zero or more [results]; each [results]
applies only to one [rec]. If a [result] applies to many [rec], the [result]
will be repeated.
Now I have 3 questions:
Question 1: Can you show these 3 Levels of 1:M in one form?
Question 2: Or do you have to use one form per 1:M Level?
What I have done so far:
In the form, I put [client] in the Form Header and [questions] in a subform
in the Detail section.
Showing the 2nd & 3rd 1:M Level on the same form is where I am stuck.
Question 3: If it has to be in multiple forms, how do you take the user
from the client form, having chosen one of the questions, to the next form
keeping the one question and then showing the many recommendations for that
question. (Then of course I would apply this to showing the 3rd 1:M level.)
I really appreciate your time, and effort in replying and enlightening my
mind on how to design the form!
Thank you very much! LifeLovin (Maryanne)
