finding foreign key info

Hi,
Is there a way to find out if a column on a table is a foreign key, what
table it references and what column on that table it is referencing. All of
my foreign keys are a single column, which should make things easier.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
NedYou can get this from a couple of INFORMATION_SCHEMA views, e.g.
select
pk_ccu.table_name as PK_Table,
pk_ccu.column_name as PK_Column,
fk_ccu.table_name as FK_Table,
fk_ccu.column_name as FK_Column
from
information_schema.constraint_column_usage pk_ccu
join information_schema.referential_constraints rc on
pk_ccu.constraint_name=rc.unique_constraint_name
join information_schema.constraint_column_usage fk_ccu on
rc.constraint_name=fk_ccu.constraint_name
where
fk_ccu.table_Name='table_in_question'
and fk_ccu.column_name='column_in_question'
