Home Forums SQL Server 2008 T-SQL (SS2K8) The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint RE: The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint

  • I specifically pay attention to the order. So I delete from the child first, then parent table.

    But I still get the error, I also tried to reverse the order, I get the same message.

    The table and forign key scripts are in the attachment.

    The delete statement I run is like below:

    PRINT 'DELETING FROM batSchoolRangeProgramResult'

    DELETE a

    FROM [Assignment_4122012].[dbo].[batSchoolRangeProgramResult] a

    JOIN @ProcessIDToClean b ON a.ProcessID = b.ProcessID

    WHERE createdby = @createdby

    AND schoolyear = @SchoolYearToClean

    PRINT 'DELETING FROM appSchoolRangeProgramSnapshot'

    DELETE a

    FROM [Assignment_4122012].[dbo].[appSchoolRangeProgramSnapshot] a

    JOIN @ProcessIDToClean b ON a.ProcessID = b.ProcessID

    WHERE createdby = @createdby

    AND schoolyear = @SchoolYearToClean
