Shuja, AFAIK, (caveats here) if you want distinct rows for each of these entries, you should probably create a time stamp as the last segment of your primary compound key.
You may be expecting to have defined a table in the traditional RDBMS style - that is not the case here - you have one row, with versions. You can get the expected traditional behavior by collecting all rows that have n-1 out of the n compound key segments. Fred.
