Hi,
I am trying to set up a DB for a race series where a riders best 6 of 10
rides count towards a league position.
I have a table of Riders ( say 300 )
I want to use a form to select which riders from the Riders Table are taking
part and create a new Event Table ( say Round 1 ) max of 120 riders per
event.
How do I go about creating the new table from the form.
Say, I've selected my 1st rider then create a new table 'Round 1' with Make
Query Table " I believe" but when it comes to the 2nd Rider I've selected do
I have to Append to the new Table ?
Basically I need a DB where I can select the Riders from a list ( or add
riders to it, if their are a new competitor ) to create a List of Riders per
Event, once the event as been run, I then enter the race order and award
points. 1st place 120 pts, 2nd 119pts and down. After the 10th event I then
create the League Table consisting of the riders best 6 from 10 events
I've been using XL for the last couple of season and I hoping to simplify
thing by using Access.

You are trying to use Excel concepts in Access.You don't create a
new table for each event, you add rows to the event-riders table.
All you need, if you think about it, in the event-riders table,
is the ID number of the event, the ID number of the rider, and
place to add each rider's preformance during the event.
You then use a filter to restrict the information to the event
you are currently working on.
The basic design becomes
Table:Riders,
field RiderID,
Riders.lastname ,
Riders.firstnam e
Riders.phone_Nu mber
etc.
Table:EVents
field:EventID
Events.title
Events.EventDat e
Events.eventLoc ation
etc.
And Table Events_Riders
field: EventID
RiderID
RiderTime
RiderStartNumbe r
RiderFinishPosi tion
RiderRunTime.
etc.
The event inscription form then presents you with two comboboxes,
The first shows future events, (you don't want to enter someone
in a race that is finished), and the second lists possible riders
They just add a new record to the permanent Events_Riders,
putting in the two relevant ID numbers. No queries needed, the
form does everything.
The event Results form lets you select from events whose date is
passed. and select a rider, then input his performance data.
Yoour league table isn't a table, just a report, filtering on the
year(or race season), and doing all the calcs required there.

Ram,
this should probably be structured like this:
Rider---(1,M)---RiderEvent--(M,1)--Event
Each Rider can compete in multiple Events, and each Event can have
multiple riders. Then you could have a field in "RiderEvent " that
would have the place the rider came in. The rest you could do with
queries.
Thx for both your replys

This question is about DB2 table design and performance.
We are using DB2 UDB Enterprise 8.2 on Linux.
We have 6 tables in a parent-child (one-to-many) relationship with each other. Each child table having an FK up to its parent. This particular design is motivated by our domain model.
A -> B -> C -> D -> E -> F
There is some debate in our team about how best to accomplish this. Two approaches have been discussed.
