After you split a database, you have two parts, And "THEN" you use linking (linked tables) from the front part to the back end. So, it is not really an issue of a preferred option, but that they are interwoven to each other. I explain the whole splitting process on a conceptual level here: http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/Articles/split/index.htm
