Referential integrity indicates that the relationships between tables have been correctly maintained .

Also, the Q Apply program does not drop referential integrity constraints on nicknames during the loading process and then restore them.

Verifying referential integrity means ensuring that no foreign key points to a primary key that does not exist.

however, these changes can be executed more efficiently using cascading referential integrity constraints.

A foreign key constraint allows you to define referential integrity between a parent and child table .

Referential integrity becomes database independent , and complex relationships between database objects become portable .

Referential integrity is also handled by standard code within the framework and requires no additional coding from any developer whatsoever.

Because referential integrity is enforced by the application logic, no relationships are defined between those tables.

Referential integrity relationships help ensure information in one table matches information in another.

The data volumes in data warehouse databases make traditional referential integrity constraints too costly.

Referential integrity preserves the defined relationships between tables when rows are entered or deleted.

Update all affected indexes and verify both referential integrity and uniqueness, where appropriate.

System triggers implement referential integrity actions.

However, the best way to enforce referential integrity is to define primary key and foreign key constraints in the related tables.

That ensures referential integrity between the tables.

If one document contains the authoritative data that other documents refer to, it is more difficult to maintain referential integrity.

You can change the conditions under which referential integrity is enforced by editing the relationship's properties.

INSTEAD OF UPDATE and DELETE triggers are not allowed on tables that are targets of cascaded referential integrity constraints.

The REFERENCES clause now supports the SET NULL and SET DEFAULT cascading referential integrity actions.

Referential integrity is not enforced in the relationships between data in the lists.

For example, it is referential integrity that forces you to create a customer record before you create orders for that customer.

Often, however, it is also possible to take a specific action on each foreign key to maintain referential integrity.

The database server verifies referential integrity by counting orphans.

The "one" and "many" symbols are not displayed in this case, because referential integrity is not enforced.

To enforce referential integrity, you must edit the relationship.

For example, if you use Table Designer to design your tables, referential integrity is enforced using relationships instead of triggers.
