Abstract
A system and method for restoring list items to a database while maintaining the referential integrity of the list items. Before requested list items are restored to a database, a dependencies tablemetadata is read to determine the links between list items of the database. A map is created, and the links between list items are stored in the map. When the requested list items are restored to the database, the requested items and any dependent items are identified from the map and restored to the database. By restoring the dependent items of the selected item to be restored, referential integrity of the database is maintained.
