Hi. I was trying to truncate a table, which is a parent to two other tables (its PK is referred to by two FKs from two other tables). These "other" tables are empty. When I tried to truncate the parent table, however, I got an error message ORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys. I thought that as long as the child tables are empty, the RI shouldn't matter, but I had to disable the FKs before being able to truncate the table. Is that the way Oracle checks truncates (no enabled RIs even if the tables are empty) or did I do something incorrectly?
thanks Gene __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
