thanks Avlesh for your reply.
ya even i had that idea .....
but the problem is project data could change very rapdily.
so in that case i will end up changing the associated user details .
say i have just 100 Project records but 1,00,000 user records .
then changing one project record means changing associated all user records
.may be it will go to 1000's.
so any idea of how to do it ??
or any suggestions for that ??
