Adding a related object

When a relationship class has been created between a table and feature class, you can associate the table rows with features. This creates a link between the table row and the feature. Adding a new related object to a feature automatically creates a new record in the table and links the feature with a new row in the table. If the relationship is many to many, the same record can be associated with all the features you select. If it is a one-to-one or one-to-many relationship, you may only be able to associate the record with one feature.
