    Table Design Specific

    I need a table to collect the score from one competitor single sitting.



    He gets 20 shots in the given time frame. I need to collect the score of each shot numbered 1 to 20.

    So I'm thinking I need 20 records in one table.

    Is there a better simpler way?

    20 records sounds like proper normalization. Would could be simpler?

    I hope you don't mean a table for each competitor and each sitting.

    That is not a normalized structure. Makes it harder to do statistical analysis (sum, average, maximum, minimum).

    Ah OK I think I've got the idea. 1 record or row for each shot. That makes sense.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
