Forgot to add that the constraint is not enforced again if I separate
the 'create' and 'insert' statements between 2 executions of the
ScriptTool class.

If I put them in the same sql1.txt file and run it in one shot I get
this 'FK insert error...'.

But if I create the tables in one run and insert the row in another it
goes inside the table without complaining.

Any idea as to what is happening ?

thanx in advance,
balaji
