Bad idea - create a Table to include Device and 10 fields one for each Error,
This is Excel brain thinking and does not make for good db design. You will only make it harder to get info in and out. Seems like your "device" is the entity, so all the attributes of the device go in that table (serial number, weight, height, whatever). Attributes that repeat go into their own table(s) so that 4 defects are listed as records, not fields. The link between the two is the primary key (usually autonumber id) becomes the foreign key value in the related table (which, by the way, has it's own PK field). I think you'd be wise to learn db normalization, as your "Bad Idea" is actually the correct approach.
The more we hear silence, the more we begin to think about our value in this universe.
