No Problem....

Yes....  I would have another table in the database.  I assume you are 
using EOModel??  In EOModel, add a new entity and enter the field names 
I described before.  In your database (DB) add your table and the 
fields.

Once you have added this table, add the priceTypeID field to the 
product entity and make a relationship between them.  Make sure you 
also add the priceTypeID to the Product table in the DB.

Once you have entered your data in the DB (EDU - Education etc) then 
just hook it up.  All Good!!  ;)

I can send you some screen grabs if you need extra help.  Let me know 
how you go.

Cheers then,

Larry.
