Hey Nick Thanks.
Your comment about ">Why does the app have to throw an
error if the employee is missing - can't it just handle that?<"

got me to thinking.
first it ticked me off, then i realized what you where getting at.

so what i need to do is instead of deleting employee data when they a fired
from the Picture Board.
What i need to do is create a check box the for active/inactive.

so we can still keep the relationships in other apps, but also tell what
studio has laid off the most people & at what level of seniority is the most
secure.

just trying to quickly do one app is going to turn into 2.
HR, is going to like this.

thanks

Paul,

>wouldn't it be just as fast to stick the actual unique value of the look up
table into the tbl_Mast_Table?

Yes it would. However, I find that using a unique autonumber ID for every
single table makes coding more standardised & therefore faster.

Don't quite understand your second point. Why does the app have to throw an
error if the empoyee is misssing - can't it just handle that?

Nick
