Your three tables do not appear to be consistent with your original post. In
your original post you said "...three types of programs .... which are all listed under the field Programs". I don't see a field Programs in any of these three tables. In your original post you said "...multiply (sp?) schools that purchase three types of programs ...). TblOrg here seems to imply that an organization purchases programs for the schools.

Steve,
Yes that is correct, sometimes the organization can purchase for several schools (ex. School District). Nonetheless, I am not clear on why I would need to change my database design and add the additional tables as you suggested. Please explain. Thanks for all your help!!!

... I am not clear on why I would need to change my database design and add the additional tables as you suggested. Please explain. The short answer is that you haven't posted enough information about your tables and relationships for anyone to assess whether or not your design is sound. $teve's stock reply in situations like this is to rubbish the design in the hope that the poster will become confused and ask for his (paid) help. The link in Arno's post will tell you all about $teve's solicitations for work. The chances are that you *don't* need to redesign your app but without more information no-one can make that assessment. I think that might be what Jeff was driving at. Keith. www.keithwilby.co.uk |

Thank you. Having to design this DB based on my minimal knowledge of all the
features has been a REAL challenge. I will try to express the out come I am looking for. In this database there are several tables, however, two of them I would like to focus on: TblSchool School ID (key) contains the name, address, contact information of the schools TblRes Res ID (key) School ID field-Program Type **(Dance, Theatre, Early Learning) field-Res Type ** (Tap, Poetry, Ballet, etc) also identifies residency information, cost, time... Below is the explanation of what I am seeking to accomplish. I have designed forms to be used as documents (example: invoices and contracts). I will use the invoice in my explanation: Example – Washington School purchased 2 dance residencies (1 tap, 1 ballet) and 1 theatre (1 poetry). Each residency is identified by its own number in the table. so in the tbleRes, Washington school has purchased the following Res Id School ID School Program Pro-Type 1 125 Washington School Dance Tap 2 125 Washington School Dance Ballet 3 125 Washington School Theatre Poetry Thus, the invoice (form) should read as follows: Quantity Description Per Unit cost Total Due 2 Dance Tap and Ballet $1.00 $2.00 1 Theater Poetry $1.00 $1.00 Total $3.00 What I am seeking help on is how to program the individual residency descriptions so that each residency is identified when more than one of the same program has been purchased. In this case, the dance program has been purchased twice, though they are different types. I need instruction on how to program the form to look like this. By understaning how this programming works will help resolve the same situation I have with capturing the correct information need for the contracts. I hope this explanation makes sense. Thank you for any help that you can offer me!!! "Keith Wilby" wrote: "Darlene" wrote in message ...
