I really need so help regarding an issue I'm having. I'm trying my best to explain the problem, if anything is not clear please tell me. Some help would mean the world to me!
Here's my problem, let's say I have these 4 tables:
**CRIMINAL**
+ ID
+ Name
+ Image
**CAR_CRIMINAL**
+ ID
+ Type
+ Image
**COMPANY_CRIMINAL**
+ ID
+ Name
+ Image
**IMAGE**
+ ID
+ Link
For example, all entities (Criminal, car_criminal, Company_criminal) all have the attribute image. But an image can be assigned to multiple companies and a company can have multiple images so therefor it's a many-to-many relationship right?
That's also applicable to the all other tables. My question is, would I have to create an associative table for each of those many-to-many relationships or is there another way to resolve this problem?
