SQL Server foreign key to multiple tables

Question

I have the following database schema:

members_company1(id, name, ...);
members_company2(id, name, ...);
profiles(memberid, membertypeid, ...);
membertypes(id         


        

Answer 1

No. A foreign key can reference one and only one primary key and there is no way to spread primary keys across tables. The kind of logic you hope to achieve will require use of a trigger or restructuring your database so that all members are based off a core record in a single table.
