Max, I understand your need. Using composite keys for many-to-many relationships can add extra safety but in absence of the feature things can still work. However even without I wonder how to present. There are no subforms that would present you common names for selected plant. Similarly there is no way to add a button displaying, say, form with common names for selected plant. Not yet. I see this addition very important anyway. There are plans to design many-tom-many relationships directly in kexi, i.e. without even thinking about PlantComName. It's good idea to report a wish for the feature at https://bugs.kde.org and vote for it (there's "Vote" link for each wish). The list of current wishes for Kexi is: http://bit.ly/9xInzW Thanks for your contributions! -- regards / pozdrawiam, Jaroslaw Staniek http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek Kexi & KOffice (http://www.kexi-project.org, http://www.koffice.org) KDE Software Development Platform on MS Windows (http://windows.kde.org) _______________________________________________ Kexi mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kexi
