I think you need to go back and look at your datadase design. You say there is no connection between Instructors and Courses but I think, in reality, there is a many-to-many relationship. You can achieve the connection with a linked (or intermediate) table which only contains the two primary keys - one from each table. Then create foreign keys on this table to the Instructors and Classes tables. The Primary Key of the linking table needs to be the composite of the two elements InstructorID and CourseID - see below.

Instructor Table: InstructorID, FirstName, LastName,...<br />
Course Table: CourseID, Subject, DateStart, DateEnd,.... <br />
InstructorCourse Table: InstructorID, CourseID  //This is a new table with just two fields


I presume you don't want Lecturer A being able to teach Geography when really his/her subject is History, but Lecturer B can teach Mathematics and Statistics - no problem.
