Barb, Not in the example you gave, no. Given that you will be recording sex, address, phone for all, or almost all, of the customers. The main use for one-to-one relationships is in a sub-typing scenario. This is where you have data where there are some data in common for all/most records, but there are also fields required specific to certain categories of the main data.
