***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** You can get it via SQL query in Access... Assuming there is a table (affiliations) that have two columns/fields (groupID,legislatorID), where each row indicates that a certain interest group made a donation for the corresponding legislator, then to get your one mode network the query will be select A.legislatorID,B.legislatorID, count(*) as weight from affiliations as A inner join affiliations as B on A.groupID=B.groupID where A.legislatorID<B.legislatorID group by A.legislatorID,B.legislatorID; The above query will result in edges between legislators with weight field indicating the number of donations received by both legislators by the same interest group.
