Dears,

I have make the following class:

Fathers name (text)
Age (text)
Children (the number of children is unknown)

So what is the best datatype for Children. I am thinking to use Matrix but just wanted to see what you guys/gals do.

I want also to be able search for all children uniquely and only list distinct names.
