Dear Knut, Thanks very much for your help but i have one more question; I have 31 schools of which 4 of them have the same name (RC Junior Sec School) but of different chiefdoms. Can i do a single attributecategory RC Junior Sec School and assigned it to the various chiefdoms? Will the schools data save separately with reference to their respective chiefdoms or should i create attributecategory for each RC Junior Sec School label with its chiefdom?
