I have an orders with one main record in table1 ( client, date, e.t.c. ) and detail description in table2 ( all materials with quant, price, e.t.c. ) and I save data in table1 for positions (range of id - autoinc field of records in table2) for detailed data of order . And I don't want someone else to insert data in table2, because will be a problem with orders. Now I insert data first in table2 and then insert main record in table1 with the range of id's of detail order data. Could be some solution for this ? Thanks in advance. Rosen "John W.
