    What I need is to have multiple tables having certain fields that are shared. The use is for a game environment. The user belong to guilds, teams make up a number of guilds. Teams accumulate scores.

    So here are the databases: guilds, game results, members, ratings.

    Hi,

    no, something like this is not really possible. WP-Table Reloaded was designed to offer a way to quickly show/generate tables. It is however not intended to be (and thus lacks the necessary functionality) of a relational database system, for example querying and so on.
    For the project that you describe, a custom solution based on PHP and and some mySQL tables will be the better way to go.

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    I understand that, the basis for custom work were to allow tables to be relational. I also need these fields to calculate, which is a basic PHP function.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    yeah, calculating is also not possible in WP-Table Reloaded, sorry :-(

    Best wishes,
    Tobias
