• ??? Maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night, but... I don't believe it should be possible to provide sample data to reproduce this scenario.

    To paraphrase my post, "I'm getting a FK violation on a delete from the PK table where no row exists in the FK table that violates the FK constraint."

    The manual and procedure code is essentially identical:

    Proc: DELETE Keywords WHERE nKeyword_Id = @nKWIdVar

    Manual: DELETE Keywords WHERE nKeyword_Id = 123075
