The following page has been changed by KevinWilliams:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ ## page was renamed from CompoundKeys
  The RDB DAS provides the ability to work with single-column keys as well as 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_key compound keys].  Keys must be 
identified to the DAS for two purposes: flushing changes to the database and 
defining a relationship.  In either case, the keys can be single-colomn or 
compound.
  
  We'll start with the first purpose: flushing changes to the database (also 
called "apply changes processing").  As part of change summary processing, the 
DAS will generate a set of INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE statements for execution 
against the database and these statements require a primary key.  So, although 
the primary key definition is not required for reading data, it is required for 
writeing data via apply changes processing.
