>>Why have a field for every row when a small minority will actually use it?
Most database system will use only one byte for a logical value, sometimes may be only one bit, so, uless you have zillons of articles, the overhead is marginal. >>However, should I really create a table with one field just for maintaining a list of article id's? In this case, I would say never! Only if an article could be featured in several instances. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
