Re: [OT] Entity Modeler, how to create a many to many

And your recall would be right :)

Actually, the latest builds have a much fancier relationship dialog,  
so you might want to upgrade to get all the relationshippy goodness  
if you haven't already.

If you select two entities in the entity tree (outline view), you can  
then click the "New Relationship" action and it will bring up the New  
Relationship Dialog.  I love the new versions of this because it even  
has an option to add the foreign key attribute for you, too, for non- 
many-to-many's (though I don't recall what it does if you don't use  
Project Wonder -- it uses prototype 'id' when you have Project Wonder).

In the dialog, you can select which sides (or both) of the  
relationship are to-many, you can name the relationships, you can  
optionally have it create a foreign key attribute for one-to-many  
(single foreign key), or you can select the join attributes.
