    Forcing a one to one relationship

    First of all, I'd like to say hi to all you people. I have a bunch of tables that are all linked. There is a one to many link that I'd like to change it to a one to one. How do I go about doing that? On the E-R diagram session, when I drag the field (PK) to the other table (foreign) Access makes...

    Combo Box issue

    Thanks again Richard. This might be something simple but I'm not getting it to work. I changed my design a little bit. I'm actually making HWY+EXIT to be unique because even though I will be entering the data, I don't want duplicates. In design view, I'm selecting both HWY+EXIT and then hit...

    Combo Box issue

    Thanks a lot willir (MIS) for your comment. I liked your design, you actually included more information than what I need. I see that on the tblExit you indexed both Hwy and ExitNum with no duplicates allowed. That can not be possible because Highways and ExitNum are going to duplicate. For...

    Combo Box issue

    Richard, Thanks for everything. I really appreciate it. The reason I created the tblHighway is because the Highways are going to be static. Currently, I'm doing it for the state of Tennessee and I don't think those Highways are going to change. I'm hoping they'll never change!!! But I like your...

    Combo Box issue

    Hello, Currently, I've created 5 tables. I want to create a form for data entry. I placed a few drop down boxes onto it along with some text fields. I want those boxes to pull the info from their corresponding tables. I can not get it to work. For example, when someone is doing data entry, I...

    Database questions

    I forgot to ask you about your comment "And with the wave files, it just may be easier to store them internally within the Access database. However, if I were to create an HR database that included photos of employees, I would store the images as jpeg files and link to the photo within Access...

    Database questions

    Thanks a lot Richard. How can I store the .wav outside the actual database. Sorry, but I'm a little confused. I created the table with the fields "Name" and "Details" and made them OLE type. Also, I added more tables than what I had before. Please, let me know what you think. Table A Highway #...
