Hi Rudy

[You wrote:]

System : NT4, MSSQL 7 and CF 4.5

Scenario:
I have 2 tables, USERS and CARS with One-to-Many relationship.
If I delete a user, then all cars that he has should be deleted too.

I use 2 queries to delete a user in the USERS and all his cars in the =
CARS table.

Is there a more efficient way to just delete a user in USERS table and =
all connection to this will also be deleted too?
Imagine if there are more than 10 relational tables.
And Can setting up a Relation Diagram in SQL help me? (I did some tests =
and it doesn't turn out to be what I expected)

Suggestions and Advices are very much welcome.

[Ant says:]
If you enforce referential integrity in MS SQL the manual says:

"When you enforce referential integrity, SQL Server prevents users from: 

Adding records to a related table if there is no associated record in the
primary table. 
Changing values in a primary table that result in orphaned records in a
related table. 
Deleting records from a primary table if there are matching related
records."

This means that SQL will manage the references for you!
