    I have disabled the foreign key constraints.Inserted new rows in the table.but when i am trying to enable the constraint.
    Error says that there is a constraint violation.

    I do not want any rows to be deleted.And want the constraint to be enabled so that future inserted records are proper.

    It can be done in 8 and 8i.I have done it long back and forgot the syntax.

    alter table emp enable constraint fk_dept ...

    the ending will be like validate ..

    I want the correct syntax for that.

    I think the command is

    ALTER TABLE <table_name>
    ENABLE NOVALIDATE CONSTRAINT <CONSTRAINT_NAME>
