Hi Karl --
Thanks for your reply.
I had a name for my constraint. I was sloppy about not including it. Sorry about that.
Thanks for your input on this type of constraint requiring the use of ADO. Is there a reference somewhere about what things require ADO? It would be nice to know this kind of thing.
Thanks again!

Hi,
I gave two conference presentations on this >20 years ago when JET4 (that brought the ADO pecularities) was still “fresh” and even then there wasn't much documentation on it. That has not improved. The only documentation to my knowledge still consists of these 3 texts:
Fundamental Microsoft Jet SQL for Access 2000
Intermediate Microsoft Jet SQL for Access 2000
Advanced Microsoft Jet SQL for Access 2000
In these texts, you then have to find out what only works via ADO and with which syntax.
Servus
