How to get reference information between parent and child tables (MS SQL Server/MSAccess)?

Jun 14 2011 2:00 AM
Is it possible to get information about whether a child table has reference to a parent table through a certain record? For example, tblParent has a record whose primary key value is 5. I want to know whether tblChild_A, tblChild_B and tblChild_C have one or more records in them where the foreign key value is 5. Well it's definitely possible by querying each of the child tables individually but I want to know whether there's any system query or stored procedure or whatever that produces a tabular output from all those tables together.
If it's possible in MS SQL Server then please also inform what's its counterpart in MS Access. Regards.
