Ivan, currently InnoDB allows a NULL in the child column only if there is a NULL in the parent column.

Hi. I am using MySQL 3.23.44-MAX. with InnoDB I have create two tables (one of them parent, other child). All seems Ok. But when I am trying to insert new record into the table I am getting key violation. It happened when I am trying insert null value into field that have foreign key. (column could be null) I am tried to find any mention over the net, but I haven't found any mentions about this. Sincerely yours, Ivan Latysh.
