I have a case where I want to create a lookup table for all the related title data where there are possibly multiple null values in the related columns ....

when I run the `extract()` method ... 

```python3

for row in db[""circulation_info""].rows:
    print(row)

print(""\n---\n"")

for row in db[""bib_info""].rows:

results in this ..

Seems like it's correctly generating the row data for those lookups, but it's not correctly updating the foreign key back to the primary table? Looks like it just results in a `NULL` value in that original table.

Any ideas on why? Thanks again!","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",722816436,
