Steps for a Database

B

Bikerman

I am not new to access but I am having some problems with a design of my own.
Can some one explain the basics behind on how to generate a database where there is a "tblCustomers", "tblProducts" and "tblInvoices". I don't need to know how to make the tables!! I just kind of get confused with the relationships and how to be able to enter multiple invoices for a specific customer. I also need to know how would I go about selecting the customer from a list. I hear so many bad experiences with look up fields on forms.
Will be greatly appreciated.

Have you looked at the same Northwind.mdb? Also, there is nothing wrong with
using combo boxes (lookups) on forms. Many of us find using lookup fields in
table designs ill-advised.
