Hi Derek, yes, your previous answer already contained information what the database schema could be. This schema is not related to my application at all. At least I think so. This would be generic and reusable. I think there is a better solution than starting plumbing this for myself. Maybe i

Hi Thomas I do not I understand your question; I made a suggestion previously for what fields you might need in this 'metadata' model, and you can add or change as needed. I do not know what your project looks like, so I cannot comment on what the rest of your database should contain. Derek
