Hi Martin !

I presume he is not using foreign keys... since he wants to check for the
existance of data in each child table....

Or he does it just to show the proper message ???

By the way... I don't like to show a message based on text (like you did)
but the exception number changes on each "drop/create exception" so there
is no other way... I think will be realy good if FB could store an "error
number" in the user exception and in FK violations, this error should be
constant to be incorporated in the client app...

Anyone has any suggestions about it ???

See you
