This may seem like a newbie type of question: for what reason would you
need a multi-column primary key. None of the books that I have read explain
why or why not. It seems that the more normalized your database is, the
less need for multi-column primary keys. Are multi-column primary keys
considered bad form? I have never needed to use them, but I happen to use
auto-incrementing integer primary keys on all tables, as discussed earlier
this week. Any thoughts on this subject is appreciated.
