Yes, I've got the "representation specs" for an address on an envelope, but what is the logical relational model related to such addresses? Again, you can skip the city, state, country, and postcode unless they are not modeled with attributes such as city, state, ...

What is a good relational data model for the rest of the address? --dawn Received on Sun Aug 28 2005 - 19:38:32 CDT
