Obviously you are new. Please do not take this the wrong way. We love to 
help people that are truly stuck, however you seem to be just a bit under 
informed about what MySQL can do. Please, allow me to help you to RTFM: 
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html

If you look in the index or use the search feature for Foreign Key, you 
will find what you need. IF you can't understand what you read. Please 
come back and post another question to the list and I or anyone else will 
be very glad to help. 

With respect,
