It is not possible to have more than one PRIMARY key per table. Maybe you need to use one PRIMARY key as the main index into the table, then use UNIQUE or KEY which is a synonym for INDEX on the other two columns.
This book will help you ALOT with designing tables. It will also teach you how to normalise (refactor) your tables into a more efficient form. http://www.apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=338 It is also more efficient IMHO to index on integer values if you can, rather than character text.
