Hi:
Appreciate if anyone can help me on the following DB design question.
I wish to have a table which stores all customers' information, say TB1.
And another table, say TB2, for only those "active customers".
TB1 will contain all information of TB2 and those are inactive, which means
they no longer wish to do business or receiving information from us.
For those customers from TB2 in the TB1, data should be consistent.
In summary, for the amount of data, TB1>TB2. For the data of the same
account of TB1 and TB2, they should be the same.
TB2 will be used for daily operation. TB1 will be use to benchmark analysis
and historic records.
So my questions are as follow:
(1) Does this logic make any sense? If not, what would be your suggestions?
(2) If so, can it be done by MS Access, and do I need any other tools or
scripts, or whatever things?
(3) If I do need any tools or scripts, would you kindly point me to the
sources where I can find it? I know that I can try Google for some tips,
but I don't even know what are key words to use for search in this case?
Thanks so much.
