Does anyone know of a way to handle selecting a record from Lookup control record lists when the record identifier is based on more than one field? For example, I need the ability to select one OrderItem from a list of OrderItems associated with more than one OrderHeader.

The easiest way to be able to do such a thing would be to have a single id field as the primary key for each OrderItem. Doing so however, would probably require significant effort to change the system to use the new primary key. But, wouldn't the system database be better designed if all tables used a single field as the primary key and replaced multi-field primary keys with constraints?

I also have the need to select a particular shipmentItemSeqId in a list of multiple Shipments and face the same problem.

Has anyone a solution to this problem?
