    Multiple work areas in on person record


    I have a volunteers database but some of the volunteers are working at multiple sites - how do I achieve this in access - they are appearing as multiple records at the moment

    sounds like your database is not normalized

    What you'd really need is a table for your volunteers, a separate table for your work sites, and a third table that tracks which volunteers are going to which sites (contains the FK to both VOLUNTEERS AND WORK SITES).

    If you're doing it on a single table you're going to continue to have that problem until you normalize your database.

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