RE: SQL foreign key question

I'm trying to create a relationship between foreign key
entity_platform_categories.platform_abbreviation (char 5) to reference the
base file entity_platforms.abbreviation (char 5).

The entity_platform_categories.abbreviation column (char 10) is not defined
in the relationship.

Thanks,
Loyd

I believe that SQL will not see the char(5) and
char(10) columns as being the same.

Good luck...
