G'day.

I have a foreign key constraint numbered #1210 on the column EntityID in 
the table TranHeader.   Without success I have tried the following ways to 
drop it and received the following error messages:

DROP INDEX #1210                   -ERROR- #1210 not found ( 46)
DROP CONSTRAINT #1210              - Syntax is incorrect for the command 
DROP (2045)
DROP INDEX TranHeader.EntityID     -ERROR- INDEX not found ( 46)
DROP INDEX EntityID IN TranHeader  -ERROR- INDEX not found ( 46)

Doing a search of the R:BASE 6.5++ on-line help says that DROP CONSTRAINT 
is a valid command but it is not in the command index.

I need to do this programmatically rather than through RBDefine as it will 
be going to my clients as part of a large update.

Before I report it as a bug:
1. Am I using the correct syntax?
2. Do you have an alternate way of programmatically dropping a foreign key?
3. If you are using the latest patch (R:BASE 2000 1.855xRT03) could you 
test dropping a foreign key programmatically and verify that it is not just 
my computer and I having a bad KEY day?

Warmest regards,


Tom Grimshaw
