Hi, sorry if I'm being daft here, but if I simply edit the database using
phpMyAdmin or similar, stripping away the uid, how will TYPO3 know what to
do with this modified table? I mean, how would it know how to keep
references intact etc.?

If you have the time, a practical example would be godsent.

Thank you for all your help!
