Where did you get the idea that Foreign Key was no
longer supported?  It works fine on my 7.1.2 box:



processdata=> select version();
                            version                   
        
---------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.1.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by
GCC 2.95.4
(1 row)

processdata=> CREATE TABLE foo (tes_key varchar(5)
PRIMARY KEY);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE/PRIMARY KEY will create implicit
index 'foo_pkey' for table 'foo'
CREATE
processdata=> CREATE TABLE bar (bar_key SERIAL, foo_id
varchar(5) REFERENCES foo);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence
'bar_bar_key_seq' for SERIAL column 'bar.bar_key'
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE/UNIQUE will create implicit
index 'bar_bar_key_key' for table 'bar'
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit trigger(s)
for FOREIGN KEY check(s)
CREATE

Good Luck,
Jason
