So now as a follow-up... Do you use the integrity features of SQL or do you
just create the tables? I am looking at future new applications and how I
can make them better.

The problem with using database integrity is older programs. Integrityviolations are manifested as I/O errors. How many of your olderprograms check and recover from I/O errors?
