Hi all,
I'm new to dotnet and I'm trying to understand the best practise to
solve this frequent situation:

1. web forms for data insertion and editing
2. one master table with 2-3 detailed tables with a "many to many
relationship"
These 'detailed' tables are linked to the master one with a many to
many table
3. users want to add, edit and delete records.

What is the best approach to implement the application with dotnet?
I'm aware that I can specify these relationships in dotnet.
May you help to better understand?
Kind regards,

Daniele

Hello, Daniele.
I believe we'll need some details pertaining to the tables and datasets in
question. Your reference to "many to many" relationships is a concern. as
this type of relationship is not supported in the relational model. Many to
many relationships are normally resolved using intersection entities to
produce one to many relationships, which are supported.

Peter,
that's what we have!
In details:

1. master table Experts
2. intersecation table tbl_Ezperts_Skill
3. table with available Skills

There is a relation many to many amid Expert and skills.

--> 3 detailed tables with 3 intersaction tables <--

Globally we have:

a. 1 master table
b. 3 intersactions tables
c. 3 detailed tables

As web form we want a UNIQUE form (not a grid!) to edit/add records.
What 's the best approach?
Kind regards,

Daniele
