How about 3 tables. Groups, Members, and Relationships. Table Group id int auto_increment name char Table Member id int auto_increment name char Table Relationship group_id int member_id int this makes queries like: select member.name from group,member,relationship where group.name='Group Foo' and relationship.group_id=group.id and relationship.member_id=member.id; select group.name from group,member,relationship where member.name='Joe Bar' and relationship.group_id=group.id and relationship.member_id=member.id; Ryan -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
