Data Referential Integrity 

Applying Referential Integrity to a Database: Correct Table Linking at Start is Essential Cost-Effectiveness
When not properly linked, badly connected tables can cause inefficiency to data retrieval. Eventually the database needs to be fixed by hand, at cost.

In an Access 2007 database, the heavy line between two tables indicates that referential integrity is in place. This is achieved by clicking the appropriate checkbox in the panel that opens up when the link is made. Using a query, one may detect the soundness of such table connections, by checking whether the line is a thin or heavy line. In the case of an unsound link, the data in tables should be "cleaned up", and tables connected with proper referential integrity. The latter prevents data corruption in the database, ensuring no attendant, costly exercise to clean up data. Therefore, it makes sense to implement an initial database that has proper data integrity before any the tables are populated.
