data diagrams, dataset, please helpOk, I might be missing something *HUGE*, so please excuse me, I'm starting to get a little desperate to understand this now. My confusion is about multiple tables - master/detail in particular. Some background: 2 tables, master/detail: CUSTOMERS [1 to many relationship] to ORDERS. When I add a new datasource and the resulting dataset, I have both tables separately appear under my dataset view (so far, I understand this). I have also created a data diagram that links CUSTOMERS to ORDERS (as in the above relationship) This is where I'm confused: When I expand the CUSTOMERS table, I also have the ORDERS table appear again directly underneath the last field of CUSTOMERS table (obviously because of my data diagram relationship). Q1: If I have a master/detail relationship as I have just described, is it necessary to create a data diagram? If not, how do I directly reference a new record being added into ORDERS and have the Foreign Key (FK) be added automatically? <-- Do i need to do this manually?? Q2: When I'm referencing the dataset, do I reference the ORDERS table that appears part of the CUSTOMERS table or the *separate* ORDERS table that appears? Appreciate any help / link provided. Cheers |
