I have a table with following structure:  
  
Id  
first quarter  
second quarter  
third quarter  
last quarter  
year  
month  
week  
day  
  
On an entry not all fields of the four quarter fields are covered with values.   
Following combinations are possible:  
  
first quarter | second quarter | third quarter | last quarter

 

x        null        null       null

null      x          null       null

null     null          x        null

null     null        null        x

x          x         null       null

x         null         x        null

x         null       null         x

null       x           x        null

null       x          null        x

null      null         x          x

x           x           x        null

x           x         null         x

x         null          x          x

null       x            x          x

x          x            x          x

 

The table will receive many thousands of entry’s.

Would it be better to divide the table in to 15 small tables in order to not register 
fields with null values?

 

Thanks for helping

Regards Martin
