    Table Relationships


    Am I correct that in order to have a relationship between tables, the tables must have at least one field in common?

    err yes - usually the primary key of one table and the family (or foreign) key in the other. You would not have a relationship between two fields in one table and one field in another

    Thanks. I believe my initial error was designating the similar field in both tables as the primary key.

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