Manually (well through my own modeller, which boils down to precisely the same result). Nevertheless, I have done this umpteen times before; and this is the first time I have bumped into any problem.

I went trough my “EOModeller User Guide”, but alas, there does not seem to be a snapshot of the Advanced Relationship pane, so I am not sure what precisely has been in there. Owns Destination and Delete Rule, I guess?

Anyway, to be sure, I have tried both combinations (“owsDestination” YES/NO and “propagatesPrimaryKey” YES/NO) in the relationship dictionary, to no avail — always the same result, the snapshot is not set.
Thanks a lot,
