Thinking about this further, it occurs to me that if the driver
routines for SQLSpecialColumns returned the actual Primary Key for a table
(if it existed) rather than OID then Access may have the required hint?

The sort of scheme I had in mind goes something like this:

if (view)
return SQL_NO_DATA

else if (table) {
if (primary key esists)
return all elements of PK.
else if (oid exists)
return oid
else
return SQL_NO_DATA
}

Or am I way off-beam with this idea?

Regards,
Harry.
