I think the main problem developers have with it is really the problems users create when they start fiddling around with things they're not supposed to -- and that's a different basket altogether. If a user doesn't have access to the tables, they can't build a lookup field and mess stuff up. If the developer uses a lookup field, then the developer simply needs to compensate throughout the application, including those queries Charlotte was talking about. However, I think most developers would skip the lookup field and compensate. Susan H. What's impractical about Lookup stuff in a table design?
