I'm using filemaker to create a union membership database, the problem i'm having is that you can't import files into related tables. Basically i'm trying to figure out how I could import an excel spreadsheet containing member information and dues payment information and then populate the correct member and their related table information. I read something I thought might be helpful about magic keys and tried to implement that but i'm wondering if my parent table needs to be my flat import table.

You can import the raw data to a Temporary table. Loop through each record. Using Magic key, you can create both parent and related records.
