i have pk,fk relationships setup , im ready start inserting data.

however not know start.

do insert tables primary keys first.

but how give foreign keys values of primary key in linking tables?

i thought starting with:

-patient -department -procedure -staff -events     -supplies 

any reference material appreciated, tried googling question not luck. perhaps eloquote more accurately.

you thought correctly, start foremost "parent" table, , work way down. inserting foreign keys can done either nested queries or getting key, storing it, , reusing it.

personally i'd go nested queries.
