I don't know the limit of columns making PK.
But I can suggest to use surrogate key and populate it from sequence.
What You will do with your 6 columns if you need a foreign key to this
table?

Hello Gurus
I just want to know the number of columns that can be combined to make a
primary key(composite).
I have a table with 16 columns of which I would like to make a combination
6
columns as a PK.
The volume of records may be 10,000 or less. This table will be used to
generate a report(thro a screen).
Any suggestions on how to design the table
TIA
Regards
Vishak
