Re: Has many problem

Just because it works for you 'now' does not make it normalized ... a normalized database would work for processes with 1 or 1,000 data relations.

What happens if you need more data stored per process or need to store extra data for each Process <-> Data relation, you would need to alter the dbase, forms, views etc. hence this is not normalised.

Glad you got your head around editing hasMany records though :)
