    The "i.id = t.id" in the WHERE clause is not needed because it's already in the join condition.

    Since we are looking for primary keys and text fields cannot be part of primary key, the "AND i.indid BETWEEN 1 And 254" is not needed as well.

    Otherwise, nice code!

    Here is an alternative using the INFORMATION_SCHEMA view.

    select column_name

    from information_schema.table_constraints join information_schema.key_column_usage on (information_schema.table_constraints.constraint_name = information_schema.key_column_usage.constraint_name)

    whereinformation_schema.table_constraints.table_name = @table_name

    and constraint_type = 'PRIMARY KEY'
