Query To pull all related data
Hello
There is DB that I just created.
Assumption -
Each nation has several states but each state will never be owned by several nations
Each state has several districts but each district cannot belong to several states
Each item can be sold to several districts and each district can have several items
How do I construct a form that that can fill in the order table keeping in mind the this relationship?
Thanks

I just installed the northwind database…can someone be kind enough to direct me to a sub form (within the northwind DB) that might help me get going in this direction?

Please check query 2 - is this is the optimal query way to represent all the components of the Orders table? Or I am doing something inefficient?

The query and concept looks right.

Hello Jim,
Thank you for confirming :)
Given the structure for my data - One thing if its possible to indicate - do you think just one form is enough to fill in the fields for these? or sequence of forms in this order?
(1) I need to create a form to fill (Nation + State + District) first ,
(2) then create another form for filling Item and (3) create another form for filling orders?
Does that make sense or I am thinking wrong?

Goal - users should only have forms to fill in the different table entities in the DB. They should not be able to use any other means to fill in these tables, only via forms
So my thing - i need to understand (1) what forms do i need create to fill in all tables and (2) how to sub form one form on the main form if possible? - for the ORDERs table
