    Am I doing this correctly? Is there a better / simpler way?
    Goal: See all care incidents given to each plant

    Form 1: Plants: record of each plant in my inventory
    Form 2: Care record: record of each incidence of care given to a plant

    Form 2: Care record: Plants Field: Link to “Plants” form with a many to many relationship, show inverse relationship

    Result: Look at a record in Form 1 and see all incidents of care given to a plant

    Thanks in advance!

    Okay, I think I figured it out after re-reading the help topic on relationships.

    In my example above, Form 2 was the parent and Form 1 was the child.

    I’ve changed it now so Form 1 is the parent (one) and Form 2 is the child (many) and the relationship is one to many. It makes much more sense now!

    I’m glad you figured it out.

    Thanks! I’m sure you’ve heard this before, but this is such a great product. It has become indispensible before the trial period has even elapsed!
