The "alter table" statement conflicted with Foreign key consrtaint

15 New Member
I have created Two tables

1]EmployeeTable
--------------------------
EmpID [ bigint] [PrimaryKey]
EmpName [ varchar(50)]
AccessLevelID [bigint ] [ Foreign Key]

2]AccessLevelTabl e
-----------------------------
AccessLevelID [ bigint ] [ PrimaryKey ]
AccessLevelName [varchar(50)]


Now i am creating relationship between these two tables.
I select relationship option for first table.
Then I added new relationship by selecting primary table field and foreign key table field.
Afterall when i am trying to save these changes I get one error
"The ALTER table Statement conflicted with foreign key constraint".
Can anyone help me as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance

wish this could help:
check the identity property in your primary key table...

Check the properties of [EmployeeTable].[AccessLevelID] to make sure there is nothing which is incompatible with the field being used as a foreign key. The one that first springs to mind is the Nullable property (Allow Nulls).

Is there any way I can define an Unique constraint or unique index which allows more than one null values for the same column combination in DB2? ie, If my index is defined on (col3, col4) where both columns allow nulls, I want col3 + col4 to be unique, if one or both the columns have values. If both columns have nulls, it should allow more than one such rows. ex,

Hello, I have a problem with a Java user-defined stored procedure and the "alter sequence" statement. I use DB2 8.1.2 and had the same problem with 8.1.0, but not with 7.*. I get the following message: SQL0206N "dipf.AENDERUNGSLISTE_SEQ" ist in dem verwendeten Kontext ungültig.

Hi, I have two tables (that I know of) in a database that seem to be corrupted. All SQL statements on the tables hang, "select * from..", "select count (*) from", "delete from..". I can't even drop the tables as the "drop table..." statement, too, hangs. But the tables do exist as they show up in "describe table <tabname> ". A "create table" statement fails saying that the table already exists.

I have an Access 97 database with 2 tables that have a one-many relationship. I have a SQL statement in the "one" table which I want to execute and insert 7 records into the "many" table, and I want them to be linked to the "main" table. Problem is, it won't let me run the SQL run as long as the one-many relationship is established in the relationship window. The SQL is:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
