REFERENCES

This box indicates whether the selected user holds the REFERENCES privilege, with the Grant option, on the on the table or tables selected in the Table column. To change the box's setting, click on the down arrow and select the setting that you want. You can select:

Yes
Grants the REFERENCES privilege without the Grant option (the right to grant the REFERENCES privilege on the selected table to other users and to groups). If the user already has the REFERENCES privilege with the Grant option, Yes revokes the privilege and re-grants it without the option.

No
Revokes the REFERENCES privilege.

Grant
Grants the REFERENCES privilege with the Grant option. If the user already has REFERENCES without the Grant option, Grant provides the option.

The REFERENCES privilege allows a user to create and drop a foreign key.

If you select multiple tables for which you specified different settings (for example, Yes for one table andNo for the others), the REFERENCES box is blank. But the settings that you specified remain in effect.
