Hi. I'm trying to build a contact table with CompanyName, LastName &
FirstName.
To make this system not looses its speed when it grows big, I thought it
would be an idea to split this into several tables, one for CompanyName, one
for LastName and one for FirstName which will be connected in a linktable.
Example:
TableCompanyName
fldMainKeyCompanyNameIDnumber
fldCompanyNameText
TableLINK
fldForeignKeyCompanyNameIDnumber
fldForeignKeyFirsNameIDnumber
fldForeignKeyLastNameIDnumber
Is this a good way to do this (I'm of course aiming for only storing one
TEXT Name once), and if so, how should I set up the Relationship (have tried
several combinations with no luck as I on the form will have rejection msg.
when trying to store duplicates)?
Thanks for feedback, JohS
