Yeah, you're right it is a ManyToOne relationship. I was thinking a Store has 
one (and only one) "type" Type associated with it at any given time. Completely 
spaced looking at it from the Type's perspective.

I think using a @ManyToOne annotation will give me what I need. After playing 
around with @PostLoad and @PrePersist in another part of the app. I think I can 
use this to ensure that the right Type's are being set in the right fields.

BTW, yes, I do agree having a "table_name" column is a bit much, and in the 
case of this app not used at all (except as part of the PK). In fact, it would 
have likely been quicker and easier to just use a enum. But alas the tables are 
what they are, and I do what I am told (most of the time anyway).

Thanks again for letting me work through this with you.
