check dba_constraints, maybe you are not the owner, and if you don't find, look at dba_objects, remember upper case.

Subject: foreign key constraint and the index_name in user_constraint table  

Hi,
Could you please help me in this issue.
I have a foreign key on a child table referencing the primary key of the parent table. I have created the index on the foreign key on the child table  Now, how do I know that the foreign key constraint is using the index or not.
I tried to see the index name from user_constarints table, but it always shows empty. When index_name is empty, what does it mean, even though I have it.
Thanks
nagu
