Hi,

Up to now I have always used RYO approach in updating foreign keys on the change of the parent key field. But I want to see if it is possible to do it in VFP just like you do it in SQL Server where you set constraints to update foreign keys on update and delete. My questions are:
1. Can it be done in VFP and is it reliable/stable
2. If 1. is Yes, where do you start? I want to build a rule for an update of one of the parent fields, as a test and see how it works.

I appreciate any suggestions. TIA.
