My database is about educational programs. There is a general "program"
table that contains four fields about personnel who have roles in the program
(i.e., "Program Director," "Assoc. Program Director," "Program Coordinator,"
and "Assoc. Program Coordinator"). There is another "Program Personnel"
table that contains a record for each person who might fill one of the four
roles. Since an individual could be in one of the roles for one program and
fill another for another program, I think I have a "many-to-many"
relationship here and need to create a junction table in order to join the
tables so that I can produce the reports I want.
So, my first question is whether I am on the right track about needing to
create a many-to-many relationship using a junction table.
If so, I see the example of the "Order Details" table in datasheet view, but
what does it look like in design view? And then how are all of the tables
joined?
Any help appreciated.
