Thread: PK & FK & Index Question
Hi All,<br /> <br /> Assume the following have a one-to-one relationship:<br /> <br /> team_contact<br /> team_contact_id (PK)<br /> first_name<br /> last_name<br /> ...<br /> <br /> team_contact_contacts<br /> team_contact_id (FK)<br /> home_phone<br /> work_phone<br /> ...<br /> <br /> <br /> Should I set thelatter table's FK also to PK? If so, do I need to set an index on the FK even though it's also the primary key?<br /> <br /> Alternatively, I could just add a UK contraint to FK and do away with PK, right?<br /> <br /> Thanks.<br /> <br/> --Lenard <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><br /><hr />Connect to the next generation of MSN Messenger <a href="http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch80/default.aspx?locale=en-us&source=wlmailtagline"target="_new">Get it now!</a>
