Question

Not sure if this is possible… however I have a table called “LineItems” with a column called “PackageId” -> PackageId IS optional, however i’d still like to somehow setup a foreign key relationship to its relating table Packages – is this possible? If so how might I go about doing it

Also, I will be using the ADO.net Entity Framework Model v4 in conjunction with MySql. i would like to apply this constraint via MySQL (if possible) and have it carry into the Entity Framework model code

thanks!

I apologize for my ignorance, however I just learned that by setting a column to allow null appears to allow me to still keep the foriegn key relationship
