As you may know, I have two registration forms, one for a new organization and one for an employee of that organization.  I want to know how I can add a field to the employee registration form that would create the employee of organization relationship upon the form submission.  Any ideas on how to do this? 

I know when I upload a set of data it is possible to match up a field from excel to the employee of organization relationship, so how can I do this with a form?

Thanks for your help!

You mentioned in your response that I can now put the employee of relationship field in a profile with the new civi 1.8

How would I export the employee of relationship to a spreadsheet?  Is this feature available yet?  I'm still working with civi 1.7, btw

I know when importing contacts from excel to civi that there is a way to import the relationship, why isn't it that easy for exporting?

I want to vote for this as something very important.

Right now I double enter a lot of relationship information as custom data so that it can be exported and searched easily.

hi

via custom search you can add the employer in the field. That's one of the provided custom search (and you have the detail on the blog/wiki if you need to customise)

You can add the Employer in the profile, works well (creates a new organisation if it doesn't exist or add the individual to the organisation if it exists)
