I have a Contact Table that has data as huge as a contact in outlook ( many many fields).
I decided to split it into groups and hence separate tables
The Main table has the absolute minimum and also functional
ClientID (PK) auto
company name
First/last name
Mobile
Then followed by "other tables for:
ClientAddress
ClientContacts(all sorts of tel/fax/mobile/
ClientInternet ( web site email etc) .... you get the idea
My question: These are all one to one relation and as far as I research, it is NOT a good idea to use one to one. Why?
Since I am in the design stage , I hope to hear from you what a bag of "worms" I am creating for myself. I mean what potential problems I am going to face in such situation and advice on how to approach such a situation.
Your input will greatly appreciated
