SUMMARY
The sp_fkey stored procedure only returns information about columns explicitly defined by ALTER TABLE or CREATE TABLE with a FOREIGN KEY constraint, and not for columns identified by sp_foreignkey. The sp_foreignkey stored procedure was last supported in SQL Server 4.21a, and is only provided for backwards compatibility with later systems. The use of sp_foreignkey was made unnecessary with the implementation of declarative referential integrity (DRI) in SQL Server 6.0.



MORE INFORMATION
For more detailed information, see the ALTER TABLE command in the Transact-SQL Reference 6.0 and the ALTER TABLE command in What's New in SQL Server 6.5.
