I have a movie and music database that have evolved into larger than
expected size. Recently I reorganized and added an instance table to both as
I have acquired multiple copies of things... DVD, VHS, ... ALBUM, TAPE, CD,
M3 and so on. I also keep a table of music artists with bio and photo ,
albums with photo & info. Occasionally artist table, the photo field gets
corrupted somehow two records will contain the same photo... ??? of course
one being wrong then... 
 
I have considered making a separate table for the photo's to make searches
views and forms quicker to develop. For example, I did this in music making
a separate table for lyrics so multiple songs can share the same lyrics and
the majority of the music instances (that have no lyrics) can point to a
memo field that reports 'no lyics available'. 
 
In a photo table I could make an image  'NO PHOTO AVAILABLE' in the table
for the many instances when the field has no data.
 
If you follow what I'm doing, am I on the right road or is there a better
way. 
 
Gary the grateful rookie
