    child rows without parent?

    Question:
    If the Division number changes in 1 table, it is suppose to
    automatically change in the other tables. If it don't change, what is
    the problem?

    Response:
    My professors response to my database problem/question:
    It will if you have the relationship created correctly, turn on
    referential integrity, and then cascade update action.

    But you will have difficulties doing this as you have child rows
    without parent rows which violates referential integrity. You have to
    either fix the data to enable this constraint.
    --------

    I need a Visual. I have "child rows" without "parent rows".

    Is there a problem with my tables like AUTH_ID?

    AUTH_ID table
    SECTY_SYS_CD
    AUTH_ID_XTRA_KE Y

    I can't attach my database. If you send me your email address, I will
    email the database so you can have a visual.

    Use my hotmail, please. Same as the yahoo listed name except it is
    athotmail dot com

    Thanks...
