Hi Alice SNAP! I am writing manuals too, great isnt it? I have done our relationship one, and we have basically decided not to record any. I have to be honest and say I remain unconvinced as to the use of recording relationships, as most of them appear to duplicate other data, but that may just be how we work/how I have understood things. Historically our records were linked hierarchically (ie parent child) but we are going to remove these as part of general cleaning of data (as it was just a geographical thing which is now available from the GIS) Chronological linking - can't you just get this by querying on period? Am I missing something here? Like I say we are not planning to record any, but would be interested to see what you come up with to see if you have thought of things I haven't. best wishes Nick Boldrini Historic Environment Record Officer Heritage and Environment Section Development and Countryside Service Business and Environmental Services Directorate North Yorkshire County Council County Hall Northallerton DL7 8AH Direct Dial (01609) 532331 Conserving North Yorkshire's heritage - encouraging sustainable access www.northyorks.gov.uk/her This email is personal.

Here in Norfolk we're really only using parent-child and peer-peer (chronological) relationships at the moment, but I was wondering whether there are any other useful relationship types that other HERs are using that we might want to adopt. Any info/suggestions gratefully received!
