what is Primary key and unique key and what is the Difference?..

Answer / andsens

Fields in UNIQUE CONSTRAINTs can be NULL. They cannot with PRIMARY KEYs.
You can define more than one UNIQUE KEY in a table.
Because of this, the behaviour of UNIQUE CONSTRAINTs
is very different from PRIMARY KEY constraints.
As long as one of the fields in a UNIQUE CONSTRAINT is NULL
the constraint itself does not apply and you can set the other fields
to whatever you want without getting an error.

what is Primary key and unique key and what is the Difference?..

Answer / arun prasad

PRIMARY KEY IS A FIELD WHICH IS USED TO IDENTIFY THE TABLE
AND THESE CANNOT BE CHANGED, IF IT IS CHANGED THE DATA
INTEGRITY WILL GET LOST.

UNIQUE KEY IS A GROUP OR A SINGLE FIELD WHICH IS USED TO
REPRESENT THE NUMERIC FIELDS WHICH DOESNT CHANGE.
THE GROUP OF NUMERIC FIELDS IS THE UNIQUE KEY.

PRIMARY KEY IS USED FOR DATABASE TABLES WHERE AS UNIQUE KEY
IS USED FOR INTERNAL TABLES.
