sorry to do this on my first post, but i did search for some answers and found it hard because all of the questions are all related to specific projects on here.
so here is mine
tblVolunteer
volunteer ID (autonum)
surname
forename
DOB
email address
phone number
date of contact
crb check (yes/no field)
level
notes
tblSport
sport ID (text, unique five letters)
sport name
tblPreference
Volunteer ID (autonum)
Sport ID (autonum)
the premise is that the volunteers have preferences in which sports they like to do, and one volunteer can have many sports that they prefer. however, i can create the one-to-many relationship for sport and preference tables, but when i go to create the relationship between the volunteer and preference tables, no only does it automatically become a one-to-one relationship, but i get a warning box "invalid field definition "volunteerID" in defintion of index or relationship"
what does this mean, and why isnt the relationship a one-to many? do i need to use lookup tables?
thanx in advance
