I've decided to fully EOize my app to replace my current use of flat files, mainly to better deal with concurrency issues. In creating my analogous tables, I found that there's no way to specify a "1 to 1" relationship between tables using the Entity Modeler tool. Is there a specific reason for this? Or is it just figured that you might as well make it one to many anyway even if it is just one to one?

If you're wondering why I want to do this, it's to hopefully reduce conflicts of multiple people updating the same record in a table. Is that generally a good reason to split 1 to 1 data into two tables?


One to one relationships can only be made on primary key to primary key joins. In relational calculus nothing else makes sense. I have not done any modelling for a while, so I don't recall how / if Entity Moder's wizard handles this. I'd be surprised if it did not.
