I have a linking table that has only two fields in it and both are

any duplicate rows in this table. I was planning on creating a
multi-column unique index to satisfy this requirement. Is there a more
appropriate way to accomplish this or am I on the right track?>
thanks.

Just create a primary key on the two columns, that way you get
uniqueness and not null constraints.
