    Multiple Items in field

    I am trying to write a db design for Film Breakdown Sheets. They basically allow me to input specific information about each scene into a form. The problem occurs with input types like "Characters ." If John and Nick are both in a single scene, how do I tell Access that.

    There is a thread (Normalisation and Table structures) which is designed to help with questions such as this.

      Basically you need to create another "relation table" holding the key of the Scene and of the Actor.
      Translated to a form this will require a Scene form with a subform showing the related Actor(s) or and Actor form with a subform showing the Scene(s).
