Please accept my ignorance, but in the sample database you build throughout the courses, you use queries to build relationships and do not use the relationship button so no links are shown on the tables,or forms. Am I missing something? Do you not use this in any of the courses,i.e after the intermediate stage. I am very new to Access and am working through all your classes, but am a little confused.
Reply from Richard Rost:
Janine, I only use Global Relationships if I need to enforce Referential Integrity in my databases. Most of the time, I don't bother... but I do cover it in later courses. See this thread in the Access Forum for my reasons why.
