I've been looking throughout the forum and the help database, but I'd rather
have someone elses help (in lamens)!
I'm trying to create a database requiring lot's of names and dates and
times! I've got the automatic date/time stamp down...when putting a certain
name in a field I need it correspond to another field that would populate
another name (i.e. a number of students to one teacher). Thank you for your
help!

That doesn't give us any clear view of the nature of your data.

See the links at

for an introduction. You will need to identify the "Entities" - real
life persons, things, or events; each type of entity (Teachers,
Students, Events...) would correspond to a Table. Just FWIW, the
Students table should emphatically NOT contain the teacher's name, or
vice versa - just links to the related table or tables.
