Here is the exact code
CREATE TABLE students
(
ID int(11),
name varchar(45),
lname varchar(45),
birth date,
PRIMARY KEY (ID)
);
CREATE TABLE schools
(
ID int(11),
name varchar(35),
PRIMARY KEY (ID)
);
CREATE TABLE courses
(
ID char(7),
name varchar(45),
credits tinyint(4),
school int(11),
PRIMARY KEY (ID),
FOREIGN KEY (school) REFERENCES schools(ID)
):
CREATE TABLE enrollment
(
ID int(11),
edate date,
estart date,
course char(7),
studentid int(11),
PRIMARY KEY (ID),
FOREIGN KEY (studentid) REFERENCES students(ID),
FOREIGN KEY (course) REFERENCES courses(ID)
);
It runs through students and schools without problem, but when it gets to the courses table it stops with
