Adam,

Thanks for particpating in this 'dialog' with myself <g>.

I forgot to mention that all add'l tables would have the
same exact structure and use a common generator.

Still a bit new to relational db concepts, I now realize,
in part by my 'explaining' back to you what I forgot
to include in my original post, that I can add an add'l
integer field, tie that to a small and simple TableCaptions
table, and use the (new to me) concept of Views, which
will be much more efficient and now only require the
one table.

<g> Is this what they mean by normalizing the data?
