Problem with Applying Naming Standards to Keys and Constraints

Question

Hi
I have an issue, and not sure where to go. I have 3 relational models in 1 design. I set up my foreign key template. I applied it to the first relational model, and it worked like a charm. When I bring up the "Apply Naming Standards" window for the second model and click on OK, nothing happens. The window just stays there and the OK button turns gray. I checked the log, but no messages are written. I just have to click on cancel to close the window. Has anyone got any suggestions on what to do? I even went back in and changed a table name to make sure that a foreign key name should change, and still nothing happens.

Hi Joep,
thanks for design. I logged bug for that problem - some FK columns keep information about non existent foreign keys.
Here is a transformation script you can run for relational model:
columns = model.getColumnSet().toArray();
for (var t = 0; t<columns.length;t++){
column = columns[t];
nodes = column.getRefColAndAssocIDs().toArray();
for (var i = 0;i<nodes.length;i++){
   node = nodes;
if(node.fkAssocId!=null){
fk = column.getDesign().getDesignObject(node.fkAssocId);
if(fk==null){
column.removeFKAssociation(node.fkAssocId);
column.setDirty(true);
And of course you have to save design - it's better to use "save as".
