> Perhaps post an example of the SQL that doesn't work Thanks James. I have all my stuff closed down right now, hitting the bed.
I did come up with an idea. Right now tblStates has a stateID for the PK. I always like using ID's for PK's. If I drop stateID and let stateAbbr be the PK, it gets dropped into the other tables - no need to join tblStates.
