We're trying to correct a spelling mistake in the accounttypes table, but
can't update the table because of the Foreign Key constraints with
SubAccounts.Accounttype. How can I disable this long enough to update the
AccountTypes name, or can it be done? I went into the DB, AccountTypes
table, Design Table, Properties for the AccountType column, and removed the
check from Enable relationship for INSERT and UPDATE thinking that might
work (i did it for both tables)....Didn't work...if it's possible (or not)
let me know please.......thanks....
