I am trying to change the primary key of a table in my SQL database from the existing key to a composite key, which does not include the existing column. The following code is not working due to the following error messages:
DROP PRIMARY KEY:
Incorrect Syntax near PRIMARY. Expecting COLUMN, CONSTRAINT, ID, or QUOTED_ID
ADD PRIMARY KEY:
Incorrect Syntax near PRIMARY. Expecting ID
T-SQL code:
ALTER TABLE AgentIdentification
DROP PRIMARY KEY Number,
ADD PRIMARY KEY (AgentId, IdIndicator)
EDIT
I was able to accomplish this by using the following two query statements
ALTER TABLE AgentIdentification
DROP CONSTRAINT [PK_AgentId_Id]
GO
ALTER TABLE AgentIdentification
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_PersonID PRIMARY KEY (AgentId, IdIndicator)
Instead of requesting that SQL "DROP PRIMARY KEY" I needed to tell it to "DROP CONSTRAINT", also separating these two actions into two queries helped.
