    Student Management Systems - problem

    Hi! I am designing a student management system and I am facing some big problems. I have three tables: Student, Curriculum and Subject. There is a many to many relationship between Curriculum and Subject, which resulted in a table AnualSubjects. For each student I would have to know what subjects they have chosen and from what curriculum, therefore I would need a relationship between Student, Curriculum and Subject. I have designined a resulting table named SubjectsStudied with the primary keys StudentID, CurriculumID and SubjectID. After I enter the StudentID and the CurriculumID, I want it to allow me to choose from a combo box only those Subjects which exist in the Curriculum and which I have previously edited in the AnualSUbjects table. How can I solve this problem??? I really need help as soon as posible!!!
    Thank you very much!

    It should be like this, but I doesn't work because Subjects and Curriculum are not directly related. They are related through the table AnualSubjects, and I take my primary keys in SubjectsStudied from Subjects and Curriculum. Am I missing something?

    Should SubjectsStudied have fields for StudentID and AnualSubjectsID (instead of SubjectID and CurriculumID)?

    Want to provide db for analysis? Follow instructions at bottom of my post.
