The Relation module supports creating relations between entities. Is there a way I could create relations between fields.

I'm not sure if I completely understand your needs. Can you elaborate, or perhaps give an example?– marcvangendCommented Dec 5, 2011 at 9:35

I need to create relations between fields, such that a field has a parent/sibling, and can be in relation to the other fields that have the same parent .. and much more that the relation module exactly provides.– user2948Commented Dec 5, 2011 at 9:41

As far as I know, Relation can only link entities to eachother. Since field values are not entities themselves (they don't even have unique ID's), Relation will probably not be able solve your problem.
Maybe Field Collection can be useful to you. It's not exactly what you describe, but it's the only module I know that allows you to bundle fields into meaningful groups.

this was my idea initially, and the only one that feels right in the situation.– user2948Commented Dec 5, 2011 at 11:11
