I noticed some of the problems you pointed out recently, as well. The problem is that a new database schema does no real good without PEQ support since they'd have to do modifications to the code to support it. Or this can be a user done thing. At any rate, I'll admit that the database isn't as lightweight as it could be.

Also, in all reality, your database diagram is correct, but you forgot to mark one-to-ones, one-to-manys, and many-to-manys. The biggest problem is never one-to-anythings, it's many-to-manys and those would be the things we'd want to resolve.

I suppose we'd also want to remove duplicate data...

I guess my biggest issue here is more that, in the end, just as much, if not more, information is still being loaded into memory which means that a database schema change really doesn't help anyone but the people trying to modify information within the database. The people doing that can usually figure things out and shouldn't need such a change...

Tough call, but I'd say no need on the new database schema.

technically, the diagram shows all referances via the color of said references:

White to black: one to many

White to white: one to one

Black to black: many to many

I havent seen any many to many references, if you do, please, post them out for me to change.

There are some one to ones, but not tons. And alot of one to manys. Again, if you see somthing that needs to be addresed, please, be my guest.

Any changes that you think are relevant to this db diagram ill be happy to make if needed.

Yeah, I'd like to know, too. SQL database diagrams are fun, but not as clean as this looks.
