See ... the point is ... you are proposing development for an Access
feature that might use pgodbc but isn't odbc driver functionality at all.
So I may predict that the exitement in this discussion group here will
be somewhat limited.

It's really rather an Access topic.
Hint: At least Access 2000 keeps such simple links and even real fk
constraints in some cases even when the graph doesn't show them anymore.
It works nicely if you explicitely delete a constraint in the graph.
The irritation starts SOMETIMES when you drop or rename a connected
table or even just change a column name that is part of a constraint.
The next time you open the constraint-graph this constraint might have
disappeared, though you still get the integrity-errors as if the
constraint was still there.
Try to find a tool that migrates real DBs to Access. Well, usually it's
the other way round but maybe you are lucky.

Never heared of "East Enders" but thanks anyway. ;)
