In MySQL, I need to know which tables depend on other tables. Is it possible to get the relations?
In SQL Server it's possible to see dependent tables. I hope MySQL can do this too.
If it's in pictorical form then that's e开发者_运维问答ven better.
Perhaps you want the SHOW CREATE TABLE
command?
If there are foreign keys defined, the above command will show you what they are.
Take a look at the information_schema, especially to key_column_usage table.

Have a look at Database Explorer (object dependency tree) - a unique feature in dbForge Studio for MySQL. Easily explore object's references and dependants in Database Explorer. Compilation of dependants for debugging is now also available through the object's context menu.
Also, Database Designer can show foreign key relations between tables.
maybe you'd want a graphical front-end to mysql since you're so used to SQL Server. if the foreign keys are defined, it will show up as a link between entities when you reverse engineer the database.
