Hello!!

I have two tables in the database: registrations and vehicles. Vehicles  
contains types of vehicles. I would like to put in the registrations  
view a drop down list (i think it is called select) that lists all the  
vehicle types (eg. SUV, Convertible…) from the vehicle table. Also  
after a user chooses a vehicle type, id of this vehicle should be  
written as a foreign key in the registrations table.

I would appreciate if someone would give me some guidelines how to do  
that.

Is it possible to access vehicle table from registrations view?

Thanks in advance!!
