Am creating a database for an auto dealership, a one to many relationship.
One customer to many vehicles and many trades. Mostly one trade per car
sold, but somtimes two. Do I create two tables? A Vehicle table and a Trades
table. I have vehicles in stock I sell and trades purchased from customers
when I make a sale. Upon delivery that Trade vehicle must become a stock
vehicle. Since all fields are the same for both Vehicle and Trade, do I
create one table and have a control(on form) to convert the trade to a vehile
in stock? Or vehicle type? Also, I must be able to create a control button
to open a form with just Trade info.
