Working from changeset 94:4fd248d09b52, the unique column is
enforced, but the dropdown is missing.  It is replaced by a
text (string) entry field.  If I add the following code to
db.py, the dropdown reappears:

db.socdiag.socform.requires = \
    IS_IN_DB(db, 'socform.id',
    _and=IS_NOT_IN_DB(db, 'socdiag.socform'))

However, with the above code, I was expecting only valid
id's (unused) to show appear in the dropdown.  Instead ALL
socform.id's appear.

In any case the suggestion to add: _and=IS_NOT_IN_DB(...
to enforce integrity solves my immediate issue.  Thanks.

Try this again with the code in trunk. assuming you have a format

db.define_table('socform',...,format="....")

you will get a default validator

db.docfiag.socform.requires=IS_IN_DB(....,_and=IS_NOT_IN_DB(...))

that will make both the dropdown and the reference unqueness enforced
by the validator.

I'm trying to enforce a one-to-one relationship between
tables socdiag and socform with unique:

db.define_table('socdiag',
      Field('socform', db.socform, unique=True),

However the socdiag table permits multiple values of the
same socform's id to occur in the socform column.  I'm using
sqlite.
