New to Access and using version 2007. I am building a database covering the
membership of a boating club. Looking at tables that would include:

* Primary Members Data - all members in the Club - type of membership, year
joined/left and similar. One record per member (so spouses/partnerships have
two line items)
* Members Contact Data - address and similar - again one line item per
member
* Members Boats Names and specifics
* Members history with the Club - membership class per year for past 25 years

And so on.

My question is the confusion of setting up the relationships and these
primary and foreign (or child they call it evidently) ID numbers.

Every member has an assigned "Member Number" - should that be the primary
key. Is the Member Number what you link between these relationship tables?

As whomever reads this can likely tell I am very confused on how to assign
relationships. And then these "Lookups" come into play.

Any help that anyone can provide would be much appreciated. I have
attempted to find this info anywhere without success.

Thank you.
