This isn’t about strings or dates since those just store data without linking. The key is that you want to query records from another table, which means you need a field that points directly to those records. That’s why the Reference field (B) fits best—it’s designed to create a relationship and pull data dynamically. Phone number fields (A) are just for storing numbers, not linking, so they don’t make sense here. So yeah, B is the right call for setting up queries across tables within a form.

Maybe B, since a reference field directly links tables, unlike strings or dates.

B imo, because a reference field is specifically designed for linking records between tables, unlike string or date fields which just hold data without connections.

It can’t be A or C since phone numbers and dates don’t link tables. D is just text, so B makes the most sense to pull data from another table directly.

It’s B, but do we know what kind of relationship the tables have? That might change the best field type to use.
