REFERENCES

This box indicates whether the user referenced on the Database page has the REFERENCES privilege on 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 or tables to other users).

No

Initially means that the user referenced on the Database page doesn't have the REFERENCES privilege on the selected table or tables. To cancel a request for the REFERENCES privilege on a table, select the table and change the setting from Yes or Grant to No.

Grant

Grants the REFERENCES privilege with the Grant 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.
