		Hi, 
 
I have just started entity modelling (oracle/sql plus) and I have got a bit stuck. 
 
How do you know what your primary tables are? 
 
Is it something that you are able to identify with experience or is there a way of spotting them, i.e looking for characteristics about the tables, criteria etc? 
 
I think I have found a logical progression for the model but I wanted to know if there is an exact way to identify primaries to back up my ideas. 
 
 
 
Cheers!
