I'm trying to setup a database with various business contacts and their
information. I have created the table of contacts with their info. The
problem is that each contact is involved in different committees. I want to
be able to input the diferent commitees that each contact is involved in and
then be able to filter out my contacts by commitee. I assume I cannot use
only one table for this, considering that you can only input one thing in
each field for each contact. So basically I want to set it up so that each
contact is connected to various committees and each committees is connected
to various contact. Going through tutorials, its seems that I have to creat
multiple tables and then create some sort of many to many relationship
between them. I don't know if I should create another table or what fields to
include where.
Basically in the end I want to be able to have a form where I can input the
contact and their information and all the committees their involved in. But I
want to do in a way that I can later on filter out my contacts by commitee.
Please help with this. Is this even possible or am I thinking about it in the
wrong way? If it is possible can please explain what I have to do and
especially HOW TO DO IT step by step. I am not a genious with computers and
its the first time I deal with access.
Thank you
