I have the tables tblEmployees and tblProjects. tblProjects has one column called Percentagetime, to hold the percentage of time by an employee for a project.

My Question : Why should we introduce a 3rd table called tblProjectsAndEmployees?
tblProjectsAndEmployees will have

    1)EmployeeNumber(PrimaryKey in tblEmployees)
    2)ProjectNumber(Primary key in tblProjects)
    3)PercentageTime

Having only the tblEmployees and tblProjects is not sufficient?
