Hello,
New to this community...glad to have stumbled on it..
I am using the "relationships" activity pane, defining relationships between tables. In my database design, I have defined some specializations..the parent table of these specializations is participating in a many-to-many relationship, so I have a third table (what Access calls a junction table, or, "for each binary M:N relationship type R, create a new relation S to represent R"). Should these specializations be defined in a relationship with this "junction" table, or with the parent table?
I'm not sure if my terminology makes sense--I have been a student, and just finished...this is the first database I am working on that is not a school project (being made for actual use ). I have done a lot of command-line, and some Access, but I often found myself working in groups, writing a lot of documentation...
Thanks for any help,
Michael
