I havent followed this thread, but it is not good practise to use conjugate
PK's on any database.
Master table should have an Integer PK MasterID
Detail table should have an integer PK DetailID AND a foreign key into
Master.

thanks, I can insert fields easily thanks. I can see how to make two fields
into a composite index by making them the first fields in a table definition
and setting them to be key fields.
What I cant see is how to create a field in another table which points to
that
composite key, as a master/detail link.
Sorry I hadnt made that clear
