Here is the issue... If you go back to what he was doing this insert doesn't work.. INSERT INTO inno3(PK_Col, Child_Col) VALUES (NULL,1) He was trying to use a Primary key as his foreign key to inno2, (in this example of what he was doing). You can't have a null PK as we all know. IT wasn't the foreign key part that was hanging him up.. I think we were on two different tracks and that could have been my fault.
