...and then David T-G said... % % I apologize in advance for asking kindergarten-level questions on the % list, but my head is getting really bruised from this one. I'm trying to I still don't understand it all ;-) but I have a somewhat better grasp. I've just returned from a trip and caught up here and also caught up on some digging on my system (we do not have innodb support compiled in). The cascading association of two keys (a "parent" and a "child" were helpful descriptors for me) is what I wanted to acheive, and for now I'll just have to enforce that in software (manually updating SALES.cust when I for some reason change CUSTOMERS.num in my example). I don't actually foresee these fields changing their values, so I'm not too worried anyway. When I actually roll out a system for a client, I'll be installing all of the LAMP components and can compile in innodb support and then update my schema (hey, I used some jargon! ;-) appropriately. I don't want to muck with either the installed mysql, thereby potentially screwing up others on the server, or the installation of a parallel innodb-enabled mysqld on the box.
