PCB adapter board design, no components. Where to begin?

spycatcher2k:
Connect with VIAs? I think you MAY have your terminology wrong, A VIA is a very small plated hole connecting one side of a PCB the other. You need pads for connecting a PCB to a PCB.

Yeah, sorry. My terminology is poor. I'm still learning.

larryd:
What you do is add terminals to the schematic and connect them in an interconnecting schematic.

I'll look into this. As it turns out I also need 2 small relays on the adapter board so I might be able to use a schematic after all. Any links you can provide to help me get started from scratch?
