yes.. A PRIMARY KEY is meant for one column.. If a PRIMARY KEY is defined on more than one column then it is called COMPOSITE PRIMARY KEY.. if you have a table having course id and student id where as one student can apply for many courses and in such a way you can define PRIMARY KEY on both columns like COURSEID AND STUDENTID.

if the same data appears in more than one row for a particular column.( eg: last name of 2 sons of the same family)
here p'key:last name is useless

In that case, primary key can have more than one column.
(p'key:last name and first name)
