The problem with that one would be that you can only make INTERNORDERs (Stock->Stock). The problem is that the relations are not nullable but depend on the type of order. I have no clue how to solve this. On 16-jun-2006, at 5:24, Michael Bayer wrote: whats wrong with this ? order_types --------------- type_id name from_stock_id to_stock_id ?
