Hi,
I have a key structure like so:
a c b
+----------+ +---------+ +----------+
| PriKey1 |--->| ForKey |<---| PriKey2 |
| | | Flag | | |
+----------+ +---------+ +----------+
...where c.ForKey is a value from PriKey1 OR PriKey2, which are different
values. All fields have the same data type; a.PriKey1 and b.PriKey2 are
sequences. How does one enfore referential integrity in this structure so
that c.ForKey references a.PriKeya when Flag is True or references b.PriKey2
when Flag is False? Looked pretty hard through the lists and on Google last
night with no luck :(
