reference table

The table to which some table field refers.

Example

One of the fields of the Items – General table is the Country of Origin (coor) field. This field can contain a country code. (The field can also be left empty.) LN stores country codes in the Countries table. To control this connection, the table field Country of Origin in the Items – General table has a reference to the Countries table.

Items – General is the referral table and Countries is the reference table.
