Per my original e-mail, this is not an option.

Basically, the two tables have nothing in commmon *except* that events
can be scheduled against either table.   Otherwise, the two tables have
vastly different data, which comes from completely different sources,
and is related to a totally different set of dependant tables.

So, no go.   

I run into this sort of thing a lot.  Is it just the way I design
databases, or is there a need for a more sophisticated model of
relationality for SQL03?
