Hi,
Then, in this case, you include the index, unique, on table2, and
(optionally) remove it from table3 (or keep it, there should be no harm
done). Indeed, a relation 1-1 INCLUDES also the 1-0 case (ie, in your
case, be in table2 but not, 0 record matching, in table3). That is why it
*IS* important to start with the correct table, when you define a 1-1
relation; easier, in fact, to see it as a 1-many relation! (where many = 0
or 1, but *no more* than just one).
Hoping it may help,
