I have two bases: Contacts and Matters. In Contacts, there are two tables: People and Companies. In Matters, I have a table (Matters) with a field for Clients. I know i can sync People and Companies to the Matters base. However, is there a way to link the records for People and Companies to the Client field? I only see a way for one or the other. 

After you've synced the "People" and "Companies" tables to the "Matters" base, you could then create two linked fields from the "Matters" table to the synced tables?  Sorry, I think I'm not understanding your problem!

I want to have one linked field. In Matters table, I have a field called Clients. In Clients field, I want to be able to pull up data from either People or Companies. But when I try to link to another record, I can only choose People or Companies. I cannot choose both.

Ah, I see!  A single linked field can only link to a single other table I'm afraid, so that isn't possible.  Maybe you could create a single table that includes the data from both the "People" and "Companies" synced tables?

I see. I was hoping otherwise. Yes, I thought about creating a single table, but was seeing if the other way could be done. Thank you for the help.
