Firstly, thanks to those who already helped me with this.
I have established a relation between non-spatial catch records in a postgis 
table and a table of station information (linked via foreign key).
If I click on a station with the info tool, I can see the various catch records 
from that station - so the relation is working.
But that seems to be it. If I filter on the species in the catch, that only 
applies to the catch data showing up when I select a station - it does NOT hide 
stations where that species was not caught. I cannot change symbology based on 
a relation, I cannot select features based on a relation - all I can do is view 
the records - and with 70 fields in the station layer, the catch records are 
just a small window at the bottom of the form.
It seems that to be useful I need to create the view or table in the database & 
access this with QGIS - whioch has issues for users without create access in 
the database - which is most of them.
Is work on this area (relations) of QGIS actively ongoing, or should I look for 
non-QGIS approaches?
Thanks,
  Brent Wood
