If taken literally, what you said conflicts with itself. If your whole
database is just one two field table (and presuming that you aren't entering
duplicates) then you would never enter an id (of someone whose name is
already in there) into a field because that record is already in the table.

- - - -

But let's say you want that to happen with a DIFFERENT table than your
name/number table. In that case link the two tables on the id field.
Then make a query that shows both tables. When you enter the number in
the id field of that differetn table, it should wark as you describe.
