Default Research project: one database or several

I'm a bit of an Access novice and, although I've had a wee root around these
posts, I apologise if the answer to my question is already there somewhere.

I'm working on a database to hold and help me analyse questionnaire
responses to a research project. In total there are 11 different
questionnaires and I wondering if (and how) I put these into one database or
make a different database for each questionnaire type. The only link between
questionnaires would be which country they are from (there are about 10
countries involved) but that's really all the information I could use to link
them and I'm not sure how to make that link or whether I should be making
that link. Any advice would be appreciated!

Cheers
Hannah

I would probably use a single MDB. Have you decided how your tables are going
to be set up? You might want to review At Your Survey found at
