This tab in the Referential Integrity (RI) builder specifies rules to apply when the key value in the parent table is modified.
- Cascade
- Specifies that changes in the fields of the Primary or Candidate key of the parent table are reflected in related child tables. If you select this option, any time you change any of those fields in the parent table, Microsoft Visual FoxPro automatically changes the corresponding values in all related child table records.
- Restrict
- Prevents modification of values in fields of the Primary or Candidate key of the parent table so there are no orphaned records in the child table.
- Ignore
- Makes it possible for you to update records in the parent table, even if there are related records in the child table.
