Virginia, is the data basically the same for everyone? What kind of data are
you storing for each buyer, requestor, and vendor because you could just
dump them all in one table and then flag each as a buyer, requestor or
vendor using some kind of id value. That's one way to go. 

Or, you could have a separate table for each -- and you should if the data
is significantly different for each to avoid all those blanks where data
doesn't apply to one type. 

So, do you have a separate table for the following as well: contracts,
business type, and account type? The two latter sound like classic lookup
tables.

Can someone please help me - I am having the hardest time setting up my
tables for this new vendor program.

I have tried making a main vendor table but when I try to put the data all
together, my form is blank and you can't add any records. I am so frustrated
with this whole thing. I keep telling myself it shouldn't be this hard!

A request has a buyer, requestor, and a Vendor. A Vendor has a contact, type
of business, and an account type. Sounds so easy.... well, every way I try I
get ZERO data.
