I have been replying to messages but somehow may
message doesnt go to the list, hope this one makes it.
Thanks! for all your comments. I think , I should
explain more about my application, the table which I
showed is
the data from one company for one type of property
listing say "Preforeclosure" data. I will be having
similar types of tables for different types of
property listings like "foreclosures" ,
"Foresalebyowner" and from different companies. In
that case I will end up with 10-20 tables each with
130 columnns.
Does it make sense to break the data into several
tables and have one-to-one relationsips ? There would
be some updates to the properties otherwise it is
mostly showing property listings on our website.
