Database Design

[Theresa Maccarone]

I'm designing this database for a friend of mind. The
database is basically the same as the sample database
(Northwind)that comes with Access2000. Can someone look
at my file to see why it doesn't work?

Thanks!

Sure. If you like, I'll send you a brochure with my current consulting
rates. Note that they aren't cheap and I do have an 8 hour minimum.

Or, perhaps you could get free support from the volunteers here by
posting a description of what you've changed and what's not working.

I recommend caution in the first place.
The Northind was designed to illustrate concepts. It does
not model a working solution for a business. It is
designed incorrectly in that context. It does not model an
ordering system that works correctly by any stretch of the
imagination.


It's is only for learning about tables relations etc. Not
about modeling a real ordering system.The relations are
incorrect in this context.
