* Deleting rows of a table*

614945Dec 12 2008 — edited Dec 12 2008
hi all

I have a table X. it has some child tables say Y,Z and all are connected through foreign keys.
now if I try to delete a row in parent table, it does not allow me to delete that row as the foreign key constraint is there.
I have not applied ON DELETE CASCADE option on foreign keys when i created them and now i can not alter those.

Is there any command by which i can delete the row in the parent table.

Thanks
