David writes "I have a problem where my 'numbered table' and its related 'comment table' went to far with its key. The problem column is a quantity field. I now have to be able to update this quantity (which is in the Primary key!) and I can not get around a Foreign Key problem. Since these tables do not need this quantity column as a primary key, I am hopeing SQL7 can be easly scripted to remove this column from the PK. Script is the only solution for the multiple locations.

I think I found a quick fix to the Foreign Key problem
ALTER TABLE 'comment table' NOCHECK CONSTRAINT fk__...
But I am still looking for the correct fix.

Also, scripting the constraint key on each machine, how do I know the name fk__... is the correct name on each machine?"
