hi, I think u r right.. because after recovering from the dumped database, when insert a value in the foreign key column which is not present in the primary key, it accepts the row inserted. which is not true when I do the same think from the mysql command prompt,( before dumping) Anybody who has experience with the same problem and is it really the true.. if it is true then what's the use of mysqldump ..( which makes someone's database scattered.) Help me also !! it is urgent ..

No, not working, When I run the command SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM yourdatabasename LIKE 'T'; shown in the manual (7.5.4.2 Foreign Key Constraints) I will see the foreign key (in the comments collumn). But if I dump and then reload the dump into mySQL the foreign key is gone. Experts, is this a BUG ???? Adib.
