How do I add the Foreign Key Sort order in the following statement:
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[ActionLog]
WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_ActionLog_Order] FOREIGN KEY([OrderID])
I want the OrderID to be descending.
A foreign key constraint only ensures the values already exist in the table referenced, not order. For referential integrity, the database doesn’t care what order of the data is.
The only way to ensure order in a resultset is to use an ORDER BY clause.
