Hi!

I have some questions.

Suppose we have,

CREATE TABLE dbo.MyTable
(FY smallint NOT NULL,
TMonth tinyint NOT NULL,
CCode varchar(12) NOT NULL,
RCode varchar(8) NOT NULL,
Received int NULL,
Sent int NULL,
Comment int NULL
Constraint pk_myTable Primary Key Clustered (FY, TMonth, CCode, RCode)
)

How many primary key(s) do you see in above table? Can above table be perhaps part of 3rd Normal form?

We have people disputing that DB is not normalized at all and there are multiple primary keys in number of tables!

Thank you for your help!
