Daryl Joubert: "I am evaluating your PostgreSQL Maestro product for purchase by my company and thus far I am very impressed! I really like the easy, intuitive and productive user interface and feature set. I am also evaluating a number of other products for PostgreSQL database design and maintenence but thus far SQLMaestro stands head and shoulders above the rest".
Andrew Maclean: "I am really quite impressed with the software. You and your people are doing a wonderful job. I actually have spent a while researching PostgreSQL admin/code generators and yours seems to fit our needs nicely. Your interface is beautiful".

Foreign Key References

A foreign key specifies that the values in a column (or a group of columns) must match the values appearing in some row of another table. The Foreign Key References tab allows you to manage foreign keys created in other tables and reference for columns of the current one. Table objects are managed within the corresponding tab of Table Editor. Unlike tables or views, Foreign Key References are actually not database objects. These are only references to foreign keys. They are designed specially for easy foreign keys management.
