Hi Richard, Only comment I will make on the ContactT that FirstName and LastName fields should be kept in ContatT table instead of CustomerT table. I believe it would have made more sense. CustomerT keeps the Company, Address, CompanyPhone etc. fields and the ContatT keeps the FirstName, Last Name, PersPhone etc. what do you say?
Reply from Richard Rost:
That is certainly one way to do it. It's really all up to you. That's the beauty of building your own database. I like to build MY personal databases with ONE primary contact on the CustomerT and then have the flexibility to add additional, unlimited contacts for that customer with a second PersonT (I call it PersonT because I already have a ContactT - to me, contacts represent instances of discussion with that customer). But you could go COMPLETELY relational and have NO people listed in the CustomerT (if your customers are primarily companies). Then have a check box on your PersonT to indicate the primary contact. Again, it's completely up to you.
