You cannot add a foreign key and drop a foreign key in the same
statements is required for each operation.
If an

changing the values.

You can view a child table's foreign key definitions as part of the output of the

You can also obtain information about foreign keys by querying the

tables.
To make it easier to reload dump files for tables that have foreign key relationships,
automatically includes a statement in the dump output to set
avoids problems with tables having to be reloaded in a particular order when the dump is reloaded. It is
also possible to set this variable manually:
mysql> SET foreign_key_checks = 0;
mysql> SOURCE dump_file_name;
mysql> SET foreign_key_checks = 1;
This enables you to import the tables in any order if the dump file contains tables that are not correctly
ordered for foreign keys. It also speeds up the import operation. Setting
