Just to be clear, you probably have a customer table with "CustIomerId"
as its key and are talking about a "child"of that where you want a
2-column key?

If, for example, the child table is a list of customer contacts,
you might add a "LastContactNo" column to the customer table,
defaulting to zero on customer insert, and which you increment to
get values for the second key column in the contact table.
