The PRIMARY_KEYS rowset identifies the primary key columns defined in the catalog by a given user. This schema rowset is built upon an SQL-92 schema view as a convenience to the non-SQL programmer and, if supported, must be synchronized with the related SQL-92 view (CONSTRAINT_COLUMN_USAGE).
Scantron OLE DB Provider implements the Primary_Keys rowset over the [Serial Number] column within the NCS Header. This supports the OleDbCommandBuilder class in the .Net framework as well as the client cursor engine in MDAC (recall ADODB.CursorTypeEnum.adUseClient). The Data Adapter Configuration Wizard in Visual Studio.Net consumes this rowset.
This schema rowset provides information that is of use to SQL query builders. This schema rowset is typically invoked by the ADO Client Cursor Engine (CCE) and the .Net framework System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder.
