    Speak for yourself - plenty of people get confused about multiple foreign keys and cascade deletes. They're all extremely easy when you know the answer.

  • Explanation is really weak. The answer is . . ., here is some code . . . see! The supplied link states nothing about delete cascade constraints, which is what this is really all about. This would have been a better link:

  • This is a great question. I was unclear on this my first half year as a DBA. My lack of knowledge never caused any mistakes, but once I found out I realized you'd really better understand where all the foreign keys are going in your database.

    FKs should be in the base knowledge.

    Both examples given in the reference of the QotD use the constraint ON DELETE CASCADE and it's a link for the foreign key relations. Additionally the example is an extra way to see what is the question really asking. The question is simple one, anyway. I think I shouldn't have written something special as an explanation. I agree that one more reference could have been added.

  • I don't use cascading deletes, but I thought the question was a good one.

  • Thanks for the question.

  • I found the good choice because of an older question about the same topic for which I answered too quickly ==> failure for me
