one to many & many to many relationship

I am currently working on access 2003. Created database with 4 tables.
For each on e there is a primary key, which is a text data type. Now
I'm trying to configure relationship between tables. The problem I
cannot create the "one to many" relationships. I can only create
"one to one ". What might be the problem?
Tried to change the data type to number. One table it did solve the
problem (but then I could not put an input mask. Others left with same
problem.

Any help will be highly appreciated!

One to many relationships are between unique column(s) (the one) in one
table and a non-unique column(s) (the many) in another table. A one to
one relationship is between unique column(s) in one table and unique
column(s) in another table. Check the indexes on the columns you are
trying to set relationships on.

I have a SQL statement in the "one" table which I want to execute and insert 7 records into the "many" table, and I want them to be linked to the "main" table. Problem is, it won't let me run the SQL run as long as the one-many relationship is established in the relationship window. The SQL is:
