Table Relationships: An Understanding is necessary...
Hi there,
I thought I understood table relationships in Access (2007 btw) but clearly I'm missing something... so hope someone can assist me: I have two tables that need to be linked: tblPatients, and tblWoundDetails. tblWoundDetails can contain many records of a patient. The PatientID in tblWoundDetails is selected off a drop-down lookup linking to tblPatients. I have set up a table relationship as well, linking these two tables on PatientID. It shows a one-to-many relationship type, and I am setting it up to say that I want all the records from tblPatients and only those records from tblWoundDetails where there are matching records. Now, what I want to achieve is when opening up tblPatients it should be able to show with a cascading + all the records from tblWoundDetails. Fristly, I am getting it the other way round, and secondly when expanding the details from tblWoundDetails it doesn't show the matching record from tblPatients. (I have captured records in both tables, so it should at least show the data). Hope all of this makes sense... Thank you kindly! W -- The Psyber Fox http://www.psyberconsulting.co.za |
