A couple observations...

Will one of your "documents" ever get used by more than one "client"? If
so, you'll need a table for documents, a table for clients and a table for
clientdocuments.

Also, when you describe revisions, it sounds like you are saying you have a
one-to-many relationship. You'd have a "parent" document (or purpose or
whatever), then one or more "child" revisions. That would take a table for
those revisions.

I'd hold off working on the forms until you get the table structure nailed
down.

Hi,

It's nice to be back here!!

I am planning to make a database for Engineering Documentation
I have the following fields

tblDocumentList
Document No Client No Description
12345 0789 Civil Works - Bldg Foundation
67890 0891 Civil Works - Steel Structure

Now each document may sometimes consist of more than one revision
I want that in my Form to have a two subform one is to view the list of
documents
the second one would be the list of revisions of a selected documents. How
can I set up my table? Do I need to create another table let say
(tblRevision) for the list of revision?

thanks anyway..Happy New Year
