title: Removing all references from a tuple using Oracle/Access
body: <p>I created a simple databse using Oracle that has several tables and a few constraints, i am using Access 2007 to interact with the database.</p>
  
  <p>My problem is that I have a table that is called "Customer" which holds several fields, most notably a Primary Key called CUSTID.</p>
  
  <p>I have another table called "Order" which uses the Primary Key in "Customer" as a Foreign Key. </p>
  
  <p>Obviously if i try to delete a customer that is being used in "Order" i get an error as it's being used. This means i have to delete the particular order that references the Customer and then i can delete the Custome record.</p>
  
  <p>I know that "cascade" should delete everything associated with it, my question is how can i do that from Access? I have limited knowledge of databases but enough to create one etc..</p>
  
  <p>This is more of a validation thing, it's just a hassle to delete certain tuples before i can remove another.</p>
  
  <p>This is the database created for Oracle:</p>
