Background Overview

Recall that you are the Access database administrator for the marketing and documentation departments of companies in the software and networking business. One of your large clients has added a table called ConsultantsBankInfo to the Consulting database. Your client wants to have a one-to-one relationship with the Consultants table. The reason for creating the ConsultantsBankInfo is to store sensitive information in that table, because you may not want all users to have access to it. The one-to-one relationship is required because you want to make sure that a record in ConsultantsBankInfo is not added without a record being in the Consultants table.
